I wish something like this existed that explained all the tax/income issues for Canada..
Does anyone have a non-Scribd version of the actual PDF or a GDocs-hosted version they could link to?
One thing that I'd be curious to learn that isn't covered in the write-up: How exactly did you learn all of this? You say "on the job," but can you elaborate? How knowledgeable were you when, say, you raised your first round of financing, and how much did investors help you through the process?

Out of random curiosity, why do you want a non-Scribd version, given that this is HTML scribd?

Great read, David. Thanks for sharing. One thing that I'd be curious to learn that isn't covered in the write-up: How exactly did you learn all of this? You say "on the job," but can you elaborate? How knowledgeable were you when, say, you raised your first round of financing, and how much did investors help you through the process?
Investors did not help a lot in the education process, but I received mentorship (both formal and casual) that proved invaluable throughout the process. One of the reasons why I am passionate about mentoring startups is that a huge number of people gave me a hand - and an education - as I tried to figure out the whole thing.
If you get nothing else from this: get a good mentor or two. Silicon Valley is built on people helping people to a degree that just isn't common in the rest of the business world.
