September 02, 2025

Bennett Jones congratulates Anu Nijhawan on being named as Chair of the Canadian Bar Association National Tax Section and Co-Chair of the CBA/CPA Joint Committee on Taxation. Comprised of some of the most highly regarded tax lawyers and accountants in Canada, the Joint Committee interacts with senior government officials in connection with current and proposed tax legislation.

Anu has served on the Joint Committee for the past six years and, through this role, has met regularly with the Department of Finance and the Canada Revenue Agency to provide technical comments, with a view to achieving an income tax system that is workable, equitable and effective.
