The Federal Logging Tax Credit allows businesses engaged in provincial logging operations to claim a tax credit of up to 6.6667% of their taxable income, based on logging taxes paid or net logging income. This program aims to support logging companies by offsetting their provincial tax obligations related to eligible logging activities.
