The Queen, 2000 D.T.C. 6050 (F.C.A.), where the Minister sought to take into account different transactions than the ones that formed the basis of the reassessments that were made within the normal reassessment period.

Anything that increases tax payable from what would have been the case prior to expiry of the normal reassessment period would be objectionable.
