(iv) a person not resident in Canada, except if the person uses the property primarily in the course of carrying on a business in Canada that is not a treaty-protected business;
(a.2) for the purposes of paragraph (a.1), if it is reasonable, having regard to all the circumstances, to conclude that one of the main reasons for the existence of two or more leases was to avoid the application of paragraph (a.1) by reason of each such lease being a lease of property where the property that was the subject of the lease had an aggregate fair market value, at the time the lease was entered into, not in excess of $1,000,000, each such lease shall be deemed to be a lease of property that had, at the time the lease was entered into, an aggregate fair market value in excess of $1,000,000;
(b) property shall be deemed to be the subject of a lease for a term of more than one year at any time where, at that time
(i) the property had been leased by the lessee thereunder, a person with whom the lessee does not deal at arm’s length, or any combination thereof, for a period of more than one year ending at that time, or
(ii) it is reasonable, having regard to all the circumstances, to conclude that the lessor thereunder knew or ought to have known that the lessee thereunder, a person with whom the lessee does not deal at arm’s length, or any combination thereof, would lease the property for more than one year; and
(c) for the purposes of paragraph (1.11)(c), where it is reasonable, having regard to all the circumstances, to conclude that one of the main reasons for the existence of two or more leases was to avoid the application of subsection (1.1) by reason of each such lease being a lease of property where the tangible property, other than exempt property, that was the subject of the lease had an aggregate fair market value, at the time the lease was entered into, not in excess of $25,000, each such lease shall be deemed to be a lease of tangible property that had, at the time the lease was entered into, an aggregate fair market value in excess of $25,000.

(1.15) Subject to subsection (1.16) and for the purposes of subsection (1.11), where at any time a taxpayer acquires property that is the subject of a lease with a remaining term at that time of more than one year from a person with whom the taxpayer was dealing at arm’s length, the taxpayer shall be deemed to have entered into a lease of the property at that time for a term of more than one year.
(1.16) Where, at any time, a taxpayer acquires from a person with whom the taxpayer is not dealing at arm’s length, or by virtue of an amalgamation (within the meaning assigned by subsection 87(1) of the Act), property that was specified leasing property of the person from whom, the taxpayer acquired it, the taxpayer shall, for the purposes of paragraph (1.1)(a) and for the purpose of computing the income of the taxpayer in respect of the lease for any period after the particular time, be deemed to be the same person as, and a continuation of, that person.
(1.17) For the purposes of subsections (1.1) and (1.11), where at any particular time a property (in this subsection referred to as a “replacement property”) is provided by a taxpayer to a lessee for the remaining term of a lease as a replacement for a similar property of the taxpayer (in this subsection referred to as the “original property”) that was leased by the taxpayer to the lessee, and the amount payable by the lessee for the use of, or the right to use, the replacement property is the same as the amount that was so payable in respect of the original property, the following rules apply:
(a) the replacement property shall be deemed to have been leased by the taxpayer to the lessee at the same time and for the same term as the original property;
(b) the amount of the loan referred to in clause (1.1)(a)(i)(A) shall be deemed to be equal to the amount of that loan determined in respect of the original property;
(c) the amount determined under subparagraph (1.1)(a)(ii) in respect of the replacement property shall be deemed to be equal to the amount so determined in respect of the original property;
(d) all amounts received or receivable by the taxpayer for the use of, or the right to use, the original property before the particular time shall be deemed to have been received or receivable, as the case may be, by the taxpayer for the use of, or the right to use, the replacement property; and

(1.19) For the purposes of subsections (1.1) and (1.11), where at any particular time
(a) an addition or alteration (in this subsection referred to as “additional property”) is made by a taxpayer to a property (in this subsection referred to as the “original property”) of the taxpayer that is a specified leasing property at the particular time, and

the following rules apply:
(c) the original lease shall be deemed to have expired and the renegotiated lease shall be deemed to be a new lease of the property entered into at that time, and
