A message from the authors:

This is not a typical tax book. It is not filled with filing tips and tricks to help you send less of your hard-earned money to the Canada Revenue Agency this year. Those are accounting strategies, which are inarguably the preserve of accountants and tax preparers.

As tax lawyers, we deal not with the “counting up” of tax owed, but with the interaction between the taxpayer and the TaxMan. We stand between taxpayers and the TaxMan as protector, defender, advocate, and , in some cases, champion, to ensure that the taxpayer receives the fairest treatment possible according to the provisions of not just the Income Tax Act, but the laws of the land and the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

We have written this book to help Canadians understand the dangers they face with every successive tax return they sign and file – or don’t file.

Knowing the TaxMan empowers taxpayers to protect their interests and achieve fiscal peace of mind.
