currently doing my taxes. wasnt sure if my winnings are considered taxable income or not. decided to call canada revenue agency (1-800-959-8281). i explained i play on the internet and that poker is just a past time for me. also brought up the fact that lottery winnings do not have to be claimed as income. this person had to go and confer with others, assuming his supervisor, and came back to tell me that because i invest time to win this money it is considered work and therefore is taxable income which i would have to enter into line 130(other income).
