"From a tax standpoint, we note the Canadian government withholds 15% of the dividends that these REITs pay to US investors, though you can recover this amount by filing a Form 1116 at tax time. Investors who hold these stocks in an IRA or other tax-advantaged account will not be able to recoup this withholding."
Is there any way around the withholding for IRA accounts? Does this apply to all Canadian dividends or is it limited to REITs?
