Action for damages over CRA tax processing errors and cessation of paper form mailings dismissed.
The plaintiff, a taxpayer who files paper returns, brought an action for damages against the Crown regarding the Canada Revenue Agency's processing errors and the Minister's decision to cease automatic mailing of paper tax packages.
The Court dismissed the action, finding no deliberate or unlawful fault by CRA employees, and holding that the Minister's policy decision was immune from suit.
Furthermore, the plaintiff failed to establish any violation of equality rights under the Canadian or Quebec Charters.
