The real problem I've identified is that the only way to prosecute for money laundering under the Criminal Code is to connect money laundering to a predicate crime. What we're seeing is professional money launderers who distance themselves from the underlying crime.
Lying to a bank could be fraud. It can be charged under the Criminal Code, but if it were made a specific predicate to support a money-laundering prosecution, as opposed to trying to find the drug case.... The case I talked about, Project Collecteur, added a year to the investigation because the prosecutor said it needed to be linked beyond money laundering to drugs, so they needed to get into where the drug network was. While that was happening, we had suitcases with $200,000 per plane flying from Toronto to Calgary or Vancouver.
