Experience
Gary's focus is on:
- Corporate and commercial tax structuring: advising on mergers and acquisitions, tax-deferred corporate reorganizations, business successions, commercial agreements, and arrangements.
- Tax controversy and dispute resolution: representing clients in administrative and legal disputes with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) including audits, objections, voluntary disclosures, and court appeals.
- Cross-border and commodity tax: advising on indirect tax compliance in cross-border transactions, including GST/HST, PST, carbon tax, and fuel tax.
Prior to entering private practice, Gary served as a judicial law clerk at the Federal Court in Ottawa, gaining invaluable insight into federal statutory interpretation, administrative decision-making, and procedural strategy. He is currently completing CPA Canada’s In-Depth Tax Program.
