Mr. Speaker, Radio-Canada obtained documents proving that the Canada Revenue Agency has known for months that, when it comes to fraud, it is about as watertight as a sieve. It has known since November 2023 that scammers were receiving bogus tax refunds. Instead of sounding the alarm, the CRA is covering up the problem. The CRA is hiding it from taxpayers, who have been robbed of more than $100 million this year. It is keeping them in the dark about the fact that 31,000 of them had their personal information stolen.
Instead of trying to fix this, it decided to investigate its own employees to silence the whistle-blowers.
Will the minister clean house?
