If one is US resident and holds a Can Roy such as PWE in an IRA, can
you take the 15% foreign tax credit? The Canadian govt takes 15% of
your dividends before you get them. If you hold it in a taxable acct
you get that as a tax credit. Can you still get it if you hold it in
an IRA?

========================================= MODERATOR'S COMMENT:
Sorry, no foreign tax credit. What happens in an IRA stays in the
IRA.
