One of the videos in this collection is specifically designed to introduce newcomers to Canada’s tax system — “New to Canada? Learn about Taxes.” The remaining videos look at more mainstream topics such as how to file tax returns, tax issues in common-law relationships, the underground economy and taxes for separated or divorced persons.

A resource from TD Bank and ABC Money Matters, this resource provides clear information on why learners need to file a tax return and the various benefits that flow from taxes.

There are no suggested classroom activities with this resource, however a link is provided for information on free tax clinics.
