OverviewSummary updated

Midnight Integrated Financial Inc. is a closed CCAA proceeding in the Court of King's Bench of Alberta, driven by disputed Canada Revenue Agency claims. CRA has proposed a tax shelter promoter penalty of $51,589,635 against Midnight under s. 237.1(7.4) of the Income Tax Act, calculated as 25% of consideration received on share issuances from 2016 to 2020, and has assessed related entities, including $7,356,062 against Comstock Adventure Corp. and $7,308,181 against Booker Adventure Corp.; each is disputed by notice of objection. Orders were granted on December 15, 2022, March 3 and September 13, 2023, March 14 and August 9, 2024, with the stay extended successively to March 8, 2023, May 31, 2023, August 31, 2024 and August 31, 2025. A bid deadline of April 19, 2024 and a claims bar date of March 31, 2025 were set.

Each row is one filing's statement, copied as it reads and never computed. "Estimated" is the officer's forecast; "Under the plan" is the plan's or proposal's own term; "Final" is a declared or paid distribution; a row with no chip states no footing. A range is the two numbers stated; "of proven claims" is the document's own denominator.
