     REASONS FOR JUDGMENT

[1]      We are all of the view that the learned Tax Court Judge did not err in concluding that benefits received under the Self-Employment Assistance Programme, and established under the Unemployment Insurance Regulations, do not constitute "earned income" within the meaning of ss. 63(1) of the Income Tax Act. Therefore, this judicial review application must be dismissed.
