Words and Phrases - "temporary"
Dupuis v. The Queen, 2009 DTC 1386, 2009 TCC 220 (Informal Procedure)
The taxpayer, who was an education specialist, was retained as a consultant by a Cree community under an employment contract with an initial term of two years (but with the contract being renewed several times). Under the contract, he was provided with, and resided in, a residence on the reserve with his family, although he continued to maintain a separate residence off the reserve as well.
In finding that the taxpayer held a temporary possession at the reserve, and that he was in a location remote from any established community, Tardif, J. noted that the taxpayer had no rights to the premises at which he lodged at the reserve since the location was under the absolute jurisdiction of the Band Council and that the Cree community lacked the quality of an established community.
