157.4. A taxpayer who has acquired as the first purchaser a film certified as a Québec film within the meaning of the regulations made under section 130, may deduct, in computing his income for a taxation year at the end of which he is the owner of that film and has been so without interruption from that acquisition, an amount not exceeding the amount by which 50% of the aggregate of the amounts deducted by him in computing his income for that year or for a previous taxation year, in respect of the film, under paragraph a of section 130 exceeds any amount deducted under this section, in respect of the film, in computing his income for a previous taxation year.
Furthermore, where the taxpayer disposes of the film for the first time, he may deduct, in computing his income for the taxation year in which he disposes of the film, the amount by which 50% of the aggregate of the amount he could have deducted in such computation, in respect of the film, under paragraph a of section 130, had it not been for the disposition, and the amounts deducted by him in computing his income for a previous taxation year, in respect of the film, under the said paragraph a, exceeds any amount deducted under this section, in respect of the film, in computing his income for a previous taxation year.
