Future development plans by the city, which opened an $8,- 000,000 city hall in 1958 and a modern filtration plant last year, have not been announced pending publication of a build- ing renewal study.

Ths was the advice given at. ; the International Tax confer- | |ence here Friday by Lancelot | *. Smith, Toronto accounting | executive.

Mr. Smith outlined the nu- merous ways in which you can lose a good part of your shirt by movements across the border.

A Canadian going to the United States, for instance, might find himself subject to heavy taxes arising out of the sale} of his Canadian home or other assets; and an American coming to Canada may find some of his past accumulations taxed as current income, Com- y stock purchase plans may ead to lesses unless appropri- ate steps are taken beforehand.

Some current American pro- posals, Mr. Smith commented, almost seem designed to make an American give up his citt- zenship.

The problem {ts a widespread one because of transfers of per- sonnel by Canadian and Ameri- can firms.
