Q: Once upon a time…..(1990) I bought shares of TRP. Many events around TRP since then, including recent SOBO spinoff, but I still own some of my original shares. You might be too young for this, but in 1994, a change was made to Capital Gains Exemptions law. We could lock Capital Gains as of Fev22,1994, in filing Form T664, and claim them later by increasing ACB. I still have my personal notes for this!. By any chance would you -or your subscribers- know if CRA keeps records as far as this? CRA web site shows records for 2012+. In 1994, tax returns and any other documents were made on paper of course. Thanks again.

We cannot say for sure, but we quite highly doubt CRA would have accurate records of 30 years...
