Canadian student in U.S. - ask international income

Hi David -
I am a Canadian in the U.S. for the next few years on an F-1 (student)
visa. I also own a small Canadian corporation which has been dormant since
I entered the U.S. I still file GST returns and Canadian business income
tax.
Am I allowed to run my Canadian business while physically located/living in
the U.S. if all my clients are in Canada and they pay by depositing to the
business account at a Canadian bank? Can I telecommute to my own business?
I don't want to do anything that would jeopardize my studies or my status,
but it sure would be nice if I could keep the business alive at the same
time!
Thanks for your help!

david ingram replies:
I have answered a dozen of these in the last month and always said yes, you
can work for a Canadian Company by telecommuting back to Canada.  No one has
written or phoned back to say that I am incorrect.
Over the years I have prepared dozens of tax returns for individuals in your
position and never had a problem.
