Bruce,

It looks like Canadians have to report most types of foreign property where their total is over C$100,000, such as foreign rental property, or bank accounts, or an "interest in non-resident trust".

But it excludes "vacation property used primarily as a personal residence", property used in an active business, and some other things.

It's the T1135 form at Revenue Canada: http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/E/pbg/tf/t1135/t1135-99e.pdf
