If I do maintain my Canadian resident status, what happens to my capital gains? Are they taxed normally? Or do I lose my personal tax exemption? For argument purposes, lets say that my gains will exceed the minimum taxable income.
If you go to Japan for a year or more you will lose your citizenship and be banned from ever entering again.
