In preparing the first edition of Taxation in Canada Mr. Perry drew on his experience of over fifteen years of close association in the federal Department of Finance, Ottawa, with the formulation of Dominion tax policy and the drafting of tax laws. He was also directly involved in the negotiations and execution of the tax rental agreements between the Dominion and provincial governments, which give him an intimate knowledge of the provincial tax structure in Canada as well. Mr. Perry's study of taxation has also benefited from his nine years' association with the Canadian Tax Foundation; he became its Director and Chief Executive Officer in 1954, and the exercise of his duties kept him in close contact with the tax problems of the business community and of governments throughout Canada. Since March 1961 Mr. Perry has been Executive Director of the Canadian Bankers' Association. A number of special assignments have come to Mr. Perry in recent years. In 1953 he was sent by the Colonial Office to Nigeria, in 1958 he visited Ghana on a mission for the United Nations, and in 1959-60 he prepared a survey of the budgeting system of the Province of Newfoundland.

"It would be difficult to conceive of a more comprehensive study of the related subjects of taxes, tariffs and subsidies. To round out the two solid volumes of facts, Mr. Perry gives his readers 40 pages of the main events in taxation -- a chronology from 1650 to 1954, also one of the most helpful bibliographies imaginable." (LEX .... The Lawyers' Magazine) "Inevitable, any organized survey of the development of the Canadian tax structure involves an economic history of Canada, and that, superbly documented and supplemented with 200 pages of bibliography, statistical tables and chronological charts, J. Harvey Perry has written readably and authoritatively." (The Business Quarterly) "As a source of data alone, this book will prove invaluable; its tables, summaries, chronological surveys and biographical material provide more information on Canadian taxation than has ever been gathered together in one book. Mr. Perry's informed comment, interpretation and evaluation of Canadian taxation past and present are an invaluable aid to intelligent understanding of the issues involved."
