Thanks for the reply.

I did some research since my initial post...

As a Canadian resident living in Japan, it looks as though I'll be paying Canadian income tax on my Japanese income (minus the tax already deducted by Japan). That's ridiculous but I don't think I'll give up my resident status for the first year - even if it was possible to do so.

As for my capital gains, it looks like it'll be business as usual.

Does this sound right?
