Précis: In February of 2014 Mr. Sood reached a settlement with CRA that would have permitted him a portion of an Ontario New Housing Rebate on a home he agreed to purchase in June of 2007 (he took possession in June of 2011). Subsequent to the date of the settlement CRA discovered that the Ontario New Housing Rebate plan did not take effect until July 1, 2010 and therefore Mr. Sood was not entitled to any Ontario Rebate. CRA refused to go ahead with the settlement and Mr. Sood sued in the Federal Court to enforce it.
