REASONS FOR JUDGMENT OF THE COURT BY:      ROTHSTEIN J.A.




Date: 20000112

Docket: A-487-98

CORAM:      STONE, J.A.

         LÉTOURNEAU, J.A.

     REASONS FOR JUDGMENT OF THE COURT

     (Delivered from the Bench at Toronto, Ontario

     on Wednesday, January 12, 2000)

ROTHSTEIN J.A.


Based on the facts as found by him, the learned Tax Court judge determined that the appellant was not carrying-on business and, therefore, was not eligible for input tax credits under the Excise Tax Act for the period in question. Notwithstanding the able argument of counsel for the appellant, we are not persuaded that the learned judge made any palpable or over-riding error such that it would justify this Court interfering with the factual findings he made or the conclusion he reached based on such factual findings.


Accordingly, the appeal will be dismissed with costs.
