In The Queen v. Prévost Car Inc., the Federal Court of Appeal dismissed the Minister of National Revenue's appeal from the Tax Court's decision that the Canadian corporate taxpayer's parent, a Dutch holding company, was the "beneficial owner" of dividends which entitled it to a reduction in the 25% rate of Canadian non-resident withholding tax to 5% under Article 10(2) of the Canada-Netherlands Income Tax Convention (the "Treaty").
