    The inherent complexity of taxation poses a daily challenge that I find particularly stimulating and the quest for social justice encourages me to continue my daily involvement.

  • Social Involvement

    I was the founder of the University in the City, a project set up in collaboration with the Faculty of Law of Université Laval aimed at providing the most vulnerable members of society with a toolbox in terms of legal knowledge allowing them to work better in society. Also, I created the Tax Clinic at the same faculty to allow taxpayers to be represented at no cost by students in tax litigation before the Tax Court of Canada. These projects were a great source of pride because they had immediate and positive consequences for the day-to-day life of the citizens who took part.
