Since 2024, expenses for a short-term rental that does not follow provincial or municipal rules (for example, operating where it is banned or without the required licence or registration) cannot be deducted. Short-term accommodation where the same guest stays continuously for less than one month is taxable for GST/HST (unless $20 a day or less); rentals of a month or more are generally exempt. and https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/I-3.3/section-67.7.html
