Mr. Speaker, the CRA paid out a $5-million return to a fraudster who typically earns $50,000, despite its having identified clear red flags. Even more concerning is that this happened six months after the finance minister appeared before committee to testify on the CRA's history of issuing millions of dollars of payments to fraudsters. He assured Canadians that the safeguards would be in place.
Did the CRA, once again, issue a $5-million return on a clearly fraudulent claim under the Liberal government's watch, yes or no?
