“Chad worked with me on a very challenging software project as a senior BA. He rapidly gained a full and detailed understanding of the highly complex domain and was instrumental in pulling together customer focused solutions. Chad's focus, intellect and humour was appreciated by the whole team. I would be delighted to work with him again.”

Taxpayers Prevail in Ontario Shuffle Cases
Tax for the Owner-Manager (Canadian Tax Foundation)
The companion Alberta GAAR decisions in Husky Energy Inc. v. Alberta and Canada Safeway Limited v. Alberta are examined. The Court of Appeal upheld the 2011 decisions of the Alberta Court of Queen’s Bench, which had allowed both taxpayers’ appeals with respect to an interprovincial planning strategy. The Supreme Court of Canada has since dismissed Alberta’s applications for leave to appeal in both cases.
