History

TaxCOOP was set up in 2015 to promote a neutral global discussion on the subject of international tax competition, an issue that was not being addressed by global tax reform. [8] TaxCOOP was founded by Brigitte Alepin, [9] UQO professor, tax specialist and author, Allisson Christians, [10] Full Professor, Associate Dean of Research at the Faculty of Law of McGill University and Holder of the H. Hewad Stikeman Research Chair in Tax Law, Lyne Latulippe, [11] Ph.D, Associate Professor and Principal Researcher at the Research Chair in Taxation and Public Finance at the University of Sherbrooke, and the Honorable Louise Otis, international administrative judge, president of the administrative tribunal of the OECD and adjunct professor at McGill University.

History of the TaxCOOP Conferences

In 2015, the TaxCOOP2015 conference was presented in Montreal at the Museum of Fine Arts. The objective of the non-partisan event was to raise awareness and stimulate reflection on the tax breaks granted by states to attract or retain investors. [12] [13] In 2016, the TaxCOOP2016 conference dedicated to developing countries was presented at the World Bank in Washington. [4] In 2017, the TaxCOOP2017 conference was presented at the Palace of Nations in Geneva. [14] In 2018, the TaxCOOP2018 conference was presented at the OECD headquarters at the Paris conference organized by the International Economic Forum of the Americas. [6] In 2019, TaxCOOP presented New Tools for an Environmental Tax System at COP25, in Madrid. [15] In 2020, the organization conducted the World Tax Summit, TaxCOOP2020, which took place in a virtual format. [16] [17] In 2021, their last event, Propelling A New Era of Tax Cooperation, was broadcast live from Montreal. [18] [19]

Roundup (police action) Mass arrest targeting a group

A roundup is a police operation of interpellation and arrest of people taken at random from a public place, or targeting a particular population by ethnicity, appearance, or other perceived membership in a targeted group. To ensure operational success, organizers rely on the element of surprise in order to reduce the risk of evasion as much as possible. When the operation involves large numbers of individuals not targeted for any perceived group membership, it may be called a mass arrest.
