MLT Aikins has one of the strongest tax practices in Western Canada. Our lawyers have experience across a broad spectrum of tax issues, including corporate tax planning, income tax, corporate capital tax, and the implications of the Goods and Services Tax and provincial sales tax, levies and royalties on commercial transactions. We can also help you make the most of Canada Revenue Agency’s Voluntary Disclosure Program if you have failed to declare all taxable income in previous years.

We have a record of success in obtaining technical interpretations, rulings and advance pricing agreements for clients. Our lawyers regularly lecture on tax law at the Prairie Provinces Tax Conference, the annual conference of the Canadian Tax Foundation and at the law schools of the Universities of Alberta, Manitoba and Saskatchewan. They are experienced in representing clients in dealings with the Canada Revenue Agency and provincial Ministries of Finance, and in appearances before the Tax Court of Canada and the Federal Court of Appeal.
