Could you please clarify for me the tax regulations in Canada regarding cryptocurrency losses? I'm particularly interested in knowing if it's possible to claim such losses for tax purposes. Furthermore, are these losses deductible against other types of income, such as employment income? And what exactly does it mean by deducting half of the capital losses? Is this deduction limited only to taxable capital gains? Thank you for your assistance in clarifying these matters.
