AgriInvest

Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada

Verbatim: "Each year, you can deposit up to 100% of your Allowable Net Sales to your AgriInvest account and receive a matching government contribution on 1% of your Allowable Net Sales."

The catch: The withdrawal order costs money and is the opposite of what most people assume. Fund 2 holds "government contributions and interest (included in income for tax purposes)" and it empties before Fund 1, which holds "your deposits (not taxable)" - so the first dollar out is the taxable one. There is also a new requirement to have an agri-environmental risk assessment in place to receive the matching government contributions, which is a new gate on existing money and is easy to miss on a program that has run unchanged for years.
