We don't have it so great up here. There is no long term capital gains rate. I pay over 40% regardless of how long I keep the stock, and folks who do a lot of trading will likely lose their capital gains rate (if challenged/audited) and will then have to pay at income rates, ie, about 54% in my province.

Stephen --

Do you know the exact date the merger becomes official? If it's July 21 or beyond, my shares will qualify for 18 mos. or longer. I suspect I'm doomed to the 12 mos. bracket.
