Ludmer v. Attorney General of Canada, 2018 QCCS 3381, aff'd 2020 QCCA 697 -- summary under Subsection 56(2)

When GAM proposed that SLT be merged with another fund managed by GAM in which non-residents were investors, it was agreed that, in light of the merged fund being subject to a higher level of fees than those to which SLT had been subject, that a Bermuda company owned indirectly by two Steinberg and Ludmer non-resident trusts would receive annual “fees” from the time of the 1994 merger that effectively represented a rebate of the higher fees imposed on the Canadian investors (although they were described to be consideration for services that, in fact, were never provided). ... They were enforceable, organized, foreseeable and customary since 1995. … [T]he contracts provided for services to be provided as consideration for the payments. … The argument put forward... that they are “nothings” for Canadian tax purposes because they are merely reputational payments arising in a non-business circumstance may ultimately be upheld by the Tax Court, but it is not so clear at this stage as to render the CRA’s position unreasonable. ...

Agence du revenu du Québec v. Des Groseillers, 2021 QCCA 906, aff'd 2022 SCC 42 -- summary under Paragraph 7(3)(a)

This reporting was confirmed in the Court of Quebec on the basis inter alia that TA s. 54 (the equivalent of ITA s. 7(3)(a) established that the stock option rules (contained in TA s. 49 et seq.) constituted a “complete code” so that TA s. 422 (equivalent to ITA s. 69(1)(b)) did not apply to deem the “value of the consideration for the disposition” received by him to be equal to the options’ fair market value of $3M, rather than the nil proceeds in fact received. ... He also found to be “unconvincing” (para. 72) a further argument that s. 422 did not feed into s. 50 because it did not explicitly deem the FMV proceeds for the gift to be “consideration” received by the employee for the option disposition, as required by s. 50. ...

Sommets du Mont-Tremblant Inc. v. Agence du revenu du Québec, 2023 QCCQ 9061 -- summary under Compensation Payments

Agence du revenu du Québec, 2023 QCCQ 9061-- summary under Compensation Payments Summary Under Tax Topics- Income Tax Act- Section 9- Compensation Payments an in-kind damages payment treated the same as a sale of the transferred property The taxpayer (“Les Sommets”), which had received $400,000 for granting an option to a third party to acquire various properties, later settled an action in damages against it by the current holder of the option (“Solstice”), for failure to honour the option, by agreeing that, in consideration for the $400,000 referred to above, it would transfer a particular property (not covered by the option) to Solstice. ... As author Jacques Deslauriers writes: "Dation in payment has two effects: the extinction of an obligation and the transfer of ownership". … There is no published case law dealing with the tax treatment of a dation in payment, but from the foregoing, the Court concludes that this transaction must receive the same tax treatment as a sale. … The value of the consideration realized as a result of this transaction, i.e., the market value of the land transferred, established at $400,000, is taxable in the hands of Les Sommets as business income, since the transfer of the land it replaced was to occur as a sale in the ordinary course of business. ...
