Thurlow, J (per curiam):

1 This appeal is from a judgment of the Trial Division which dismissed the appellant's claim for repayment of money paid by Dominion Engineering Works Limited as taxes in respect of the sale price of a paper making machine constructed by Dominion Engineering Works Limited for the appellant and installed in the appellant's premises by an engineering firm known as Rust Associates Ltd.

Décary, J:

1 The Court must determine whether the loss sustained by three shareholders in a company which was the owner of a building, as a consequence of expenses incurred by them in their capacity as tenants of the said building, is deductible for the purposes of paragraph 27(1)(e) of the Income Tax Act.

2 The Tax Review Board found that deduction of these expenses had unduly and artificially reduced the income of plaintiff.
