In the course of finding that the appellant was receiving a financial supply from the casinos it contracted with, Sharlow JA stated (at para. 15):
In the context of this appeal, the word "consideration" should be understood to mean anything that would be consideration under the law of contract, and "taxable supply" should be understood to include anything supplied in the course of a commercial activity except a "financial service" as defined in subsection 123(1) of the Excise Tax Act. It is undisputed that the business of the Casinos is a commercial activity, and the acts of Casinos pursuant to its contract with Global are acts in the course of that commercial activity.
