T123 also says it applies to a taxpayer who also is a member of a partnership. It is unclear to me if this statement means to included individuals/taxpayer who are also member of a partnership or if
ONLY individuals/taxpayers who are a member of a partnership can elect to use this form.
What's your interpretation? I'm just a individual. I'm not a member of a partnership in a corporation.
All just my opinion/view/thinking

Normally short gains and losses are reported on income account.
Submitting a T123 allows you to elect reporting short sales on Capital account for Canadian stocks. This is a onetime election and can never be reversed.
