The provision of a truck to the taxpayer's husband by a corporation of which she was the sole shareholder and he the principal employee was found to be a benefit to her under s. 15(1) (as assessed by the Minister) rather than under s. 6(1)(e) given that the work performed by him in the year in question was negligible (the corporation had largely ceased operations). Accordingly, the benefit was conferred on her husband by reason of her shareholding rather than by reason of his employment.
