STONE J.A.


[1]      We have not been persuaded that paragraphs 122.5(1)(b) and 122.5(5)(a) of the Income Tax Act violate the applicant's equality rights enshrined in section 15 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

[2]      Accordingly, this application for judicial review from the judgment of Bowie J.T.C.C. of March 16, 2000 will be dismissed without costs.
