                                                    REASONS FOR JUDGMENT

SEXTON J.A.

[1]                In spite of Mr. Mitchell's attractively brief but most able and incisive arguments, we are unable to hold that the Tax Court Judge erred either in his decision dated May 31, 2004 or in his reasons given for his interpretation of the loss determination provisions of section 152 of the Income Tax Act.

[2]                The appeal will be dismissed with costs.
