Consequently, the Taxpayer does not demonstrate with sufficient prima facie reliability that the claimed interest expenses qualify.<sup>1<\/sup> [Our translation]<\/p>\n<p>In summary, the Court concluded that the Plaintiff had not demonstrated that the financial source came directly from the mortgage refinancing; the income and expenses that resulted from the money invested in the business by the Taxpayer came back to him in the form of dividends.
