My understanding of your hypothetical is that it isn't something that's covered by the Corruption of Foreign Public Officials Act.

If it was a representation made in Canada, with respect to how funds would be used in a foreign country and that caused the Government of Canada to part with that funding, then that could be investigated from here as well as a fraud.
