Offshore corporations may be useful in some circumstances but must be formed and maintained with care. Remember Revenue Canada (CRA) requires Canadian  residents to file reports in the following circumstances:

1.  ownership of more than $100,000 of foreign investment property;
2.  ownership of an interest in a foreign affiliate of a Canadian Corporation;
3.  transfer to a foreign trust or receipt of a distribution from a foreign trust.

The Government of Canada requires that lawyers, accountants and financial  institutions (among others) keep records and report on suspicious and  proscribed transactions (e.g.. the transfer of $10,000 or more). The  reporting entity is prohibited from revealing to the client that a  report is being or has been filed.
