Your first $5,000 is tax free. If you go over the limit, that amount has a 1% penalty AND IS TAXABLE. I asked if there was a limit, but I doubted if it's taxable, as that means more money for CRA.

So, if you go over your limit by say $10 grand, then sell the first half of the shares you got with that 10 G's, it's tax free. But the second half of those excess shares will be a capital gain and you will be taxed on it when you sell those shares. In other words, excess contributions are taxable, if you make a capital gain on them.

Again, I'll confirm all of this on Tuesday AM, but it makes sense to me if it's this way.
