    As a Canadian who holds digital assets, you are required to report your holdings to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). This includes reporting the value of your digital assets and any gains or losses you have incurred. The CRA treats digital assets as property for tax purposes, so you will need to report them on your annual tax return. Failure to report your digital assets could result in penalties and interest charges.
