Default Re: Serious tax problem.. Need advice.

So i am canadian and my life for last year goes as follows.

1) Worked a job from Feb to July 40 hours a week got fired
2) in august started to make some money online while returning to my old job part time. worked on average 20 hours a week
3) won around 4000 US playing ring games + a 13000 dollar trip to australia. this was completely lucky and i have never moneyed and rarely play tournaments.

This year my hours in poker played will dwarf my work hours BUT i also got excepted into teachers college and am attending that in september. so poker is a hobby and not a life choice for me.

How do i assess if i should pay taxes on poker or not??
