Note:

The Ontario (Canada) Court of Justice ,Chapnik, J., denied a complaint for exclusion of evidence by the applicants (Bjellebo and one other). The evidence related to the applicants' involvement in what Revenue Canada officials called "the largest case of tax evasion ever prosecuted in this jurisdiction." The CAD 118 million involved loan account statements, letters of credit, performance bonds, and other banking documents.
