Hello;
You can claim interest paid on a bank loan as long as the interest was incurred to earn investment income. The requirement of earning income generally means that the investments should be paying interest or dividends. If an investment will never earn anything except capital gains, then the interest expense isn’t deductible.
Note: You can't claim the interest you paid on money you borrowed to contribute to a registered retirement savings plan.
