Tax Policy Colloquium: Scott Wilkie

The Stikeman Chair in Tax Law is holding its second annual Spiegel Sohmer Tax Policy Colloquium as part of its PUB2 515 Tax Policy class. Featuring distinguished visiting academics, it is a forum for students, professors and local practitioners to discuss issues of tax policy and theory, along with related issues of economics and social justice. This fall, in its second installment, the Colloquium will focus on the fundamentals of corporate tax policy by critically examining issues in national and international tax policy.
