former

Revenue Canada tax collector but the judge did find he had jurisdiction in the case which would normally have gone to federal court in Vancouver

Jeanne Paling and her lawyer, Terry Dalton, say the jurisdictional ruling, which appears to have no precedent in Canada, is satisfying despite losing the case itself

jurisdiction of the federal court would effectively give government employee immunity from responsibility for their treatment of Canadians
