The FCA overturned a decision of the Tax Court of Canada and concluded that President’s Choice Bank met all the requirements to claim notional input tax credits under s. 181(5) of the Excise Tax Act with respect to payments it made to reimburse Loblaws for discounts that Loblaws provided customers when they redeemed loyalty points at Loblaws stores. PC Bank was represented at the FCA by Anu Koshal, Simon Douville, Almut M., and Chia-yi Chua, ICD.D. A link to the decision is here: https://ow.ly/trg850T99PG
