Dear Sir:

This is in reply to your letter dated October 18, 1990 respecting section 78 of the Income Tax Act (the "Act").

In our opinion the filing of an agreement pursuant to paragraph 78(1)(b) of the Act in respect of an unpaid amount owing by a Canadian resident debtor to a non-resident creditor residing in a country with which Canada does not have a tax treaty would not in and of itself result in the non-resident creditor being considered to carry on business in Canada.

The opinion expressed herein is not an advance income tax ruling and, in accordance with paragraph 21 of information Circular No. 70-6R2 dated September 28, 1990, is not considered binding on the Department.

Yours truly,

for DirectorReorganizations and Non-Resident DivisionRulings DirectorateLegislative and IntergovernmentalAffairs Branch
