Actually I think RC is a bit confused on Cap Gains. E.G. moving a security into a RSP from a trading account, they would like to believe that a gain is a gain but a loss is not a loss...

Go figure, although the loss side is being challenged more and more in court..

On Paper losses
I believe that if I took paper losses more seriously I would be a better trader......

Read the question again, dummy. I know Rev Canada differentiates between realized and unrealized losses. The point is that Rev Canada makes no distinction between trusts and any other stock in this regard. Nortel is treated no differently than NCF. You can't have it both ways. Either you've suffered a loss on NCF, or the Nortel holders haven't suffered any loss at all. Which is it?
