The Tax Court of Canada has established a pilot project for regular motion days in Toronto for the period of February to September 2016. The Court will review the initiative in September 2016. The project may be expanded to other cities.

The first motion day is scheduled for Monday February 22, 2016, followed by Monday March 21 and Tuesday March 29. Subsequently, motions will be scheduled every first and third Monday through to the end of September. If the motion day falls on a statutory holiday, the motion day will be scheduled the following week.

The Court also reminded the public and counsel of the Court's practice for the requirements and scheduling of motions under the General Procedure, as described in the Court's Practice Note No. 2 (amended).
