• Marc's Response by way of an excerpt from Canada Revenue Agency's "Keeping Records" document:
  
  
  Records in electronic format
  
  We consider you to have electronic records if you create, process, maintain, and store your information in an electronic format.
  
  You are required to retain your electronic records in an electronically readable format, even if you have paper printouts of the electronic records.
  
  If any of your source documents are initially created, transmitted, or received electronically, they must be retained in an electronic format.
  
  Scanned images of paper documents, records, or books of account that are maintained in electronic format are acceptable if proper imaging practices are followed and documented.
