Canadian Tax Journal: The Fourth Decade--1983-1992: 1

The publications that result from their studies are intended to offer reliable, illuminating, and lasting contributions that will foster understanding of our tax system and spending programs within the professions, government, and the academic and business communities.1 He repeated this message the next year: [S]ince its establishment forty years ago, the Foundation has defined its mission clearly-to contribute to the improvement of the tax laws and the process of citizen education in the fields of taxation and public expenditure primarily through its research and publications. [...]it is difficult to read or even be aware of the tax books, articles and other material being published. [...]Canadians who are trying to keep up with significant developments in other tax systems, especially in countries with which Canadians have significant business transactions and investments such as the United States and the United Kingdom, find the proliferation of tax literature on a worldwide basis truly intimidating. . In 1985, volume 33, issue 3, a significant change was made in the content of the journal. [...]this time, most of the articles in the journal were published in English. The cover was redesigned and a French title adopted (Revue fiscale canadienne), and information about the journal and the Foundation and other incidental material were presented in both French and English. [...]the journal set the objective of publishing at least one original French-language article in each issue.
