I don’t know who will be able to answer this question, but I’d like to know who will be responsible for determining whether this was a mistake made in good faith or whether there was genuine intent to defraud. I’m a contractor myself, and I do paperwork all day long. Sometimes people make mistakes.

Is it up to the RCMP to determine whether there has been fraud or attempted fraud? It may happen that someone on the register as a director or business owner makes a mistake. Who will determine if it was a mistake made in good faith?
