LÉTOURNEAU J.A.

[1]      Despite the able argument of counsel for the appellant, we are not satisfied that Judge Dussault of the Tax Court of Canada committed any error of law in interpreting and applying subs. 160(4) of the Income Tax Act which might justify our intervention. Accordingly, the appeal will be dismissed with costs.
