Mr. Speaker, it is just two weeks away from the tax deadline, and we had better cross our t's and dot our i's, because we all know that the CRA gives no quarter to ordinary Canadians, but there is a good chance a fraudster might walk away with a couple million dollars. In fact it was reported this week that the CRA once again paid out millions of dollars to a fraudulent claim. This is not new. It has been happening for years.
In fact in the last Parliament, the minister responsible said, “We have zero tolerance for fraud in all of its forms.” If that is really true, will the minister take responsibility and hold himself and the CRA accountable?
