REASONS FOR JUDGMENT OF THE COURT
(Delivered from the Bench at
Vancouver, British Columbia, on March 4, 2002.)
SHARLOW J.A.
[1] Despite the able submission of counsel for the Appellant, we are not persuaded that the Tax Court Judge erred in quashing the tax appeal, for the reasons he gave. This appeal will be dismissed with costs.
[2] In dismissing this appeal, we express no opinion on whether it remains open to Mr. Jones to commence proceedings in the Trial Division to compel the Minister to consider exercising his discretion under subsection 165(6) of the Income Tax Act, which permits the Minister to waive certain formalities relating to notices of objection.
