Your profile says Income Tax Central so you must know this, but I thought meals are meals and all fall under the same rules, no? Same for entertainment such as theatre, hockey games, etc. I didn't think you could circumvent the rules as you're suggesting. For example, you can't take a client to a restaurant, give him a gift card for the restaurant and have him use it to pay for the meal (while claiming the entire cost of the card). Is this incorrect? I know accountants all handle things differently so maybe mine is more strict.
This is getting off topic but I'm interested in your stance on this.
