(régime provincial ou territorial)For the purpose of clause 19(1)(a)(i)(A), the simulated average revenue yield relating to provincial or territorial personal income for the province or territory for a taxation year ending in a fiscal year shall be determined by means of the micro-simulation model bysimulating, in respect of each provincial or territorial system in turn, the total amount of personal taxes that would be derived from all individuals in the province or territory in the taxation year if that provincial or territorial system applied to those individuals;simulating, in respect of each provincial or territorial system in turn, the total amount of personal taxes that would be derived from all individuals in all provinces and territories in the taxation year if that provincial or territorial system applied to those individuals;dividing the amount simulated in respect of each provincial or territorial system under paragraph (a) by the amount simulated in respect of the same provincial or territorial system under paragraph (b);calculating the weight of each province or territory’s provincial or territorial system, which shall be equal to a fractionwhose numerator is the revenues referred to in paragraph 18(1)(a) for the province or territory, as set out in the certificate for the fiscal year, andwhose denominator is the aggregate, over all provinces and territories, of the revenues referred to in subparagraph (i);multiplying each amount calculated under paragraph (c) by the respective weight calculated under paragraph (d); andcalculating the sum of the 13 products calculated under paragraph (e).SOR/2008-318, s. 14; SOR/2013-225, s. 22; SOR/2018-131, s. 16Gross Expenditure BasePopulation Adjusted Gross Expenditure EscalatorCalculation AccuracyEvery calculation used to determine the population adjusted gross expenditure escalator shall be made to five decimal places.Population Adjustment FactorThe population adjustment factor, defined in subsection 4(1) of the Act, for the fiscal year for which the territorial formula financing payment may be made is more particularly defined to be equal to the ratio1 + A : 1 + BwhereAis the three-year moving average of the rate of change of the population of the territory; andBis the three-year moving average of the rate of change of the population of Canada.For the purpose of subsection (1), the three-year moving average is determined by the formula[(P4/P5 - 1) + (P3/P4 - 1) + (P2/P3 - 1)] /3whereP2is the population of the territory or Canada, as the case may be, two fiscal years prior to the fiscal year for which the territorial formula financing payment may be made;P3is the population of the territory or Canada, as the case may be, three fiscal years prior to the fiscal year for which the territorial formula financing payment may be made;P4is the population of the territory or Canada, as the case may be, four fiscal years prior to the fiscal year for which the territorial formula financing payment may be made; andP5is the population of the territory or Canada, as the case may be, five fiscal years prior to the fiscal year for which the territorial formula financing payment may be made.Provincial Local Government Expenditure IndexThe provincial local government expenditure index, defined in subsection 4(1) of the Act, is more particularly defined to be the amount determined by the formula1 + {[(P4/P5 - 1) + (P3/P4 - 1) + (P2/P3 - 1)] / 3}whereP2is the amount of the provincial local government expenditures two fiscal years prior to the fiscal year for which the territorial formula financing payment may be made;P3is the amount of the provincial local government expenditures three fiscal years prior to the fiscal year for which the territorial formula financing payment may be made;P4is the amount of the provincial local government expenditures four fiscal years prior to the fiscal year for which the territorial formula financing payment may be made; andP5is the amount of the provincial local government expenditures five fiscal years prior to the fiscal year for which the territorial formula financing payment may be made.For the purpose of subsection (1), the provincial local government expenditures for a fiscal year shall be calculated on a not seasonally adjusted basis and be based on the data from Statistics Canada’s publication entitled National Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by Income and by Expenditure Accounts that is available to the Minister at the time of the calculation referred to in section 4.3 of the Act. The expenditures shall be equal to the sum ofthe expenses of the provincial and territorial general government sector, as determined by the formulaA - B - C - D + EwhereAis the gross outlay,Bis the total of net capital transfers,Cis the total of transfers to local governments,Dis the total of capital consumption allowances, andEis the total investment in fixed capital, andthe expenses of the local general government sector, as determined by the formulaF - G - H - I + JwhereFis the gross outlay,Gis the total of net capital transfers,His the total of transfers to provincial and territorial governments,Iis the total of capital consumption allowances, andJis the total investment in fixed capital.SOR/2013-225, s. 23SOR/2023-230, s. 14AdjustmentIf, following the conclusion of a personal

expenditure base of Yukon is to be adjusted by the amount determined by the following formula, the adjustment shall be applied on a non-cumulative basis for each of the second, third and fourth fiscal years following that in which the agreement was concluded:A - (70% × B)whereAis equal to the amount of tax, determined in accordance with the agreement, that is foregone by the Government of Yukon for the taxation year that is two years prior to the fiscal year for which the territorial formula financing payment for Yukon is being calculated, andBis the average difference — for the taxation years that are two, three and four years prior to the fiscal year for which the territorial formula financing payment for Yukon is being calculated — between the yield for Yukon revenues derived from personal income, net of federal and Yukon territorial personal income tax assessed in respect of Yukon residents, when it is calculatedwithout taking into account the specified Yukon aboriginal government’s federal tax abatement and territorial tax credit, andtaking into account that abatement and that credit.Only the adjustment made in the fourth fiscal year is subject to escalation under the population adjusted gross expenditure escalator.SOR/2009-327, s. 7RecalculationFor the purpose of recalculating the gross expenditure base under subsection 4(2) of the Act, the prescribed

more revenue sources; andany information that is required to be set out in the certificate that is not available.SOR/2023-45, s. 3When determining, for the purpose of subsection 6(3) or subparagraph 6(4)(a)(i) or (ii) of the Act, the total revenue derived by a province for a fiscal year from a revenue source described in the definition revenue source in subsection 3.9(1) of the Act, the Minister shall use the following information that is available as of the second December 1 following the end of that fiscal year:in respect of revenues from personal income taxes, as described in paragraph 7(1)(a), and corporation income taxes, as described in subparagraph 7(1)(b)(i), for a province that has entered into a tax collection agreement respecting those taxes, the information that is available to the Minister for the administration of the tax collection agreement; andin respect of all other revenues described in subsection 7(1), the information contained in the province’s application and the information set out in the certificate referred to in section 33.1.If any information referred to in subsection (1) is incorrect, missing or unavailable, the Minister may use in place of that information an estimate based on any information that is available to the Minister at the time of the determination.SOR/2023-45, s. 3For the purpose of paragraph 6(5)(b) of the Act, the total amount of provincial personal income taxes that are payable as the result of assessments or reassessments made in a calendar year is equal to the sum ofall provincial personal income taxes that are assessed or reassessed in that year, net of all corresponding provincial non-refundable tax credits, non-refundable tax rebates, income tax reductions and capital gains refunds,in respect of a province that has entered into a tax collection agreement respecting personal income tax, the province’s share of unapplied payments for the previous calendar year, as estimated in accordance with the tax collection agreement, andin respect of a province that has not entered into a tax collection agreement respecting personal income tax, the amounts — net of the value of any special abatement referred to in subsection 3.9(2) of the Act — that have not been assessed as of December 31 of the calendar year and that were, according to the information returns submitted by employers and other payers to the province during the one-year period beginning on March 1 of the previous calendar year, deducted at source as personal income tax for the province for any previous calendar year.For the purpose of paragraph 6(5)(c) of the Act, the total amount of provincial corporation income taxes that are payable as the result of assessments or reassessments made in a calendar year is equal to the sum of all provincial corporation income taxes that are assessed or reassessed in that year, net of all corresponding provincial non-refundable tax credits, non-refundable tax rebates, capital gains refunds and tax remission orders and of the corresponding provincial small business deduction.For greater certainty, for the purpose of paragraph (1)(a) and subsection (1.1), if a reassessment results in a greater amount of tax payable than the initial assessment or the most recent previous reassessment, as the case may be, the difference — not the full amount of the reassessment — is to be added to the sum referred to in those provisions. If it results in a lesser amount payable, the difference is to be subtracted from that sum.In computing the revenue derived by a province from a revenue source for a fiscal year, other than from the revenue sources referred to in paragraphs 7(1)(a) and (b), the Minister may deduct from that revenue source the amounts referred to in paragraph 9(1)(b), without taking into account the reference to subsection 3.5(1) of the Act in subsection 9(1).For the purpose of this Part, in computing the revenue derived by a province from a revenue source, the Minister may make any adjustment that is necessary to take into accountany change between the accounting practices used in the public accounts of the province in a fiscal year for which an application for a fiscal stabilization payment has been received and those used in the province in the immediately preceding fiscal year; orany change between the methodology of Statistics Canada used for reporting revenue derived by a province from a revenue source in a fiscal year for which an application for a fiscal stabilization payment has been received and that used in the immediately preceding fiscal year.SOR/2013-225, s. 30; SOR/2018-131, s. 18SOR/2023-45, s. 4A province may make an application signed by its Minister of Finance or Treasurer for the payment of advances on account of fiscal stabilization payments for a fiscal year that may become payable to the province. The application shall bebased on information on revenues that relate to the first five months or more of the fiscal year; andsupported by the comparative revenue information that is available to the province for the period referred to in paragraph (a) and for the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year, including information that relates to any changes in the revenue that is subject to stabilization that results from changes either in the rates or in the structures of provincial taxes or other modes of raising the revenue of the province from those that were in effect during the immediately preceding fiscal year.The Minister may, after receiving from a province a completed application referred to in section 32 or 35 for a fiscal year, make one or more estimates of any amount that may become payable to that province in respect of fiscal stabilization for that fiscal year.If the Minister estimates that a fiscal stabilization payment is to be paid to the province, the Minister may make one or more advance payments to the province on account of that payment, but the cumulative total of those advances shall not be more than the limit referred to in subsection 6(8) of the Act.SOR/2013-225, s. 31An amount lent to a province under subsection 6(9) of the Act is repayable or recoverable in 60 equal monthly instalments, the first of which becomes due and payable 30 days after the day on which the amount is lent.Despite anything in this Part, if an amount is lent to a province before the last day of February of the fiscal year for which an application has been received, that amount shall be repayable or recoverable in equal monthly instalments on the first and third working days after the 15th calendar day of each month of the fiscal year throughout the period beginning on the April that immediately follows the lending of that amount and ending five years after the day on which that amount was lent.The Minister shall make a final computation of any fiscal stabilization payment that may be paid to a province for a fiscal year under section 6 of the Act within 21 months after the end of the fiscal year for which an application under that section is made and shall provide the province with a statement that describes the manner in which that computation was made.If the amount of the final computation of the fiscal stabilization payment to be paid is more than the total amount of advance payments made under subsection 36(2), the Minister shall, subject to the limit set out in subsection 6(8) of the Act, pay the difference between those amounts to the province.SOR/2023-45, s. 5Subject to sections 37 and 41, the Minister may, in whole or in part, deduct the amount of an overpayment made in relation to a fiscal stabilization payment made to a province from any amount that is payable to that province under the Act. Any amount of the overpayment that is not deducted may be recovered from the province as a debt due to Her Majesty in right of Canada.If the Minister determines that an amount lent to a province under subsection 6(9) of the Act is more than the difference between the fiscal stabilization payment calculated under subsections 6(1) to (6) of the Act and the limit for that payment determined in accordance with subsection 6(8) of the Act, the amount of the difference shall be deducted from any amount payable to the province under the Act. Any amount of that difference that is not deducted may be recovered from the province as a debt due to Her Majesty in right of Canada.An amount that is repaid by, or recovered from, the province under section 37 before the deduction or recovery referred to in subsection (1) reduces the balance that would otherwise have been determined to be outstanding on a loan to a province made under subsection 6(9) of the Act.On making a deduction or recovery referred to in subsection (1), each monthly instalment that otherwise would be due and payable under section 37 is reduced to the quotient that results from dividing the difference between the balance referred to in subsection (2) and the amount of the deduction or recovery by the number of instalments remaining to be paid.Recovery of Net OverpaymentsThe Minister shall, for each province in relation to each fiscal year in the period beginning on April 1, 2007 and ending on March 31, 2029, calculate the net aggregate of overpayments to be recovered from that province by addingthe net total of all underpayments and overpayments in relation to the following payments made under the Act or a tax collection agreement concluded under the Act, that are shown in that fiscal year to have been made in relation to each previous year within the period beginning on April 1, 1994 and ending on March 31, 2028:fiscal equalization payments, other than additional fiscal equalization payments made under section 3.71 of the Act,fiscal stabilization payments, andincome tax payments under tax collection agreements; andthe amount of any overpayment that is shown in that fiscal year to have been made in relation to that fiscal year of fiscal equalization payments, fiscal stabilization payments and income tax payments under tax collection agreements.On the request of a province, the Minister shall not, during a fiscal year, recover any amount of the net aggregate of overpayments that is more than $174 per capita, based on the population of the province as determined under section 11.If, after subtracting the amount recovered from the province in the fiscal year in respect of the net aggregate of overpayments, there remains an outstanding balance for the net aggregate of overpayments, that balance shall be deferred until the following fiscal year and be taken into account when calculating the net total referred to in paragraph (1)(a) for that following fiscal year.Despite subsection (2), if any portion of the deferred outstanding balance remains outstanding at the end of the second fiscal year following the fiscal year in which the recovery of that net aggregate of overpayments was first subject to the amounts set out in subsection (2), it shall be recovered during the fiscal year that immediately follows that second fiscal year.SOR/2008-318, s. 18; SOR/2013-225, s. 32; SOR/2018-131, s. 19SOR/2023-230, s. 18The prescribed amounts referred to in section 3.95 of the Act are equal monthly amounts required to repay the payment referred to in that section over the period beginning on April 1, 2007 and ending on March 31, 2016.Consequential Amendment, Repeals and Coming into ForceConsequential Amendment[Amendment]Repeals[Repeals]Coming into ForceThese Regulations come into force on the day on which they are registered.RELATED PROVISIONS
