737.18.17.1.1. In this Title, two large investment projects that are covered by the same qualification certificate are deemed to be a single large investment project (referred to as a “deemed large investment project”), except as regards the determination, in respect of each project, of the total qualified capital investments of the corporation or partnership carrying out the projects, the date of the beginning of the tax-free period and the last day of the tax-free period.
Such a rule applies throughout the particular period that begins on the date of the beginning of the tax-free period in respect of the large investment project that began first (in this Title referred to as the “first large investment project”) and that ends on the last day of the tax-free period in respect of the other large investment project (in this Title referred to as the “second large investment project”).
The definition of “tax-free period” in the first paragraph of section 737.18.17.1 is, in relation to a deemed large investment project, to be read as follows:““tax-free period” of a corporation or a partnership, for a taxation year or a fiscal period, in relation to a deemed large investment project, means the part of the taxation year or fiscal period that is both covered by a certificate issued to the corporation or partnership in respect of the large investment project and included in the particular period referred to in the second paragraph of section 737.18.17.1.1 or, where the corporation or partnership acquired all or substantially all of the recognized business in relation to the project and the Minister of Finance authorized the transfer of the carrying out of the project to the corporation or partnership, according to the qualification certificate issued to the corporation or partnership, in relation to the project, in the part of that particular period that begins on the date of acquisition of the recognized business.
