This blog was put together to document the wrongdoings and cover ups by the government of Canada. It documents just a little of what is going on at the Canada Revenue Agency’s (CRA) Montreal Tax Service Office (TSO). The situation at the Montreal TSO was so bad that in June 2012 the CRA announced job cuts eliminating the Montreal Special Enforcement division responsible for many of the issues brought up here; this is the audit division which hid the fact that most audits were truly just criminal investigations.
Whether it be counselling their employees to commit perjury, human rights abuses, acts of harassment towards female employees of the Montreal Tax Service Office, sexual harassment of a terminated female employee of the Montreal TSO, even physical assault of another female employee of that same TSO… the CRA has no limits to what it is willing to do to win at all costs.
The CRA recently counselled employees in its Laval TSO to ignore section 241 of the law and speak to the RCMP; even though doing so could result in termination of the employee. Despite the CRA denial, the RCMP “need only ask and they shall receive” when it comes to protected information in the CRA databases. The CRA regularly provides RCMP with taxpayer information, despite assurances that taxpayer information is held in the strictest confidentiality.
When you send in your tax return you might as well send a copy to the RCMP, because audit findings are regularly shared with police; in fact, the RCMP share an office (in the Montreal burrow of Nun’s Island) along with several members of the CRA’s Montreal Tax Service Office Special Investigations unit. And you can be sure that if it’s happening in Montreal, it’s happening all over Canada.
Next time the CRA comes to audit you, you won’t know whether it’s really an audit or a criminal investigation disguised as an audit; for instance recently the CRA has hired a new auditor at its Montreal TSO. This individual used to work as an RCMP analyst in Ottawa; now we can’t be sure what would motivate a person to apply for a pay cut, but if we were the suspicious type: maybe this person has been hired to do more than just audits. Maybe this person should be asked to investigate how classified and protected information managed to be stolen from the Montreal Tax Service Office’s on René-Lévesque boulevard in the fall of 2011; since (to date) no one has been held accountable; despite the fact that the CRA offices are protected by security guards and cameras. Every detail of the case suggests collusion between CRA senior management and security officials at the TSO. We believe that some of these same individuals supplied an identity theft ring with taxpayer information that also, “just walked out of the front door” of the Montreal TSO.
In this blog you will find over 20 letters addressed to the Commissioner Canada Revenue Agency; these letters didn’t get much of a reaction, or get the changes we wished for, possibly due to the fact that (as we discovered) she was part of the problem and the cover up.
The letter dated October 26, 2011, to the then RCMP Commissioner speaks of a CRA manager who conspired with the then Montreal TSO director to interfere with R&D staff, for their personal mutual benefit. The letter dated September 22, 2010, shows how she was foiled from giving a taxpayer over $100 million dollar break for buying her lunch (what else was she going to receive had she been successful?).
The letter dated November 10, 2011, includes a spreadsheet detailing which former employees of the CRA received (conspired to steal) nearly $1.2 million dollars, for services never rendered, and which they weren’t allowed to receive; and never asked to repay.
If you are a racist, you will enjoy the letter dated October 30, 2012, “CRA promotes racism”, which discusses the promotion received by one openly anti-Semitic employee of the Montreal TSO. You might also enjoy our article entitled “Millionaires waiting to move to Canada, so the CRA can tax them. It discusses how the CRA is targeting 15,000 mainly Asian investors coming to Canada.
See our letter dated June 16, 2010, which shows the director of the Montreal TSO was “buddy buddy” with a convicted money launderer. And, the June 4, 2010 letter, discloses how he managed to give away $57 million to a billionaire, for his personal gain.
See letter dated September 6, 2011, it shows that when dealing with the file of one wealthy individual an auditor received a warning from a tug appearing at his home to “back off or else”. Why do some corporations belonging to the wealthiest families pay no tax? Get audited almost every years? (Even though, apparently, very little is ever found). Have, in the past, hired the same auditors that have just finished auditing their corporations (with no red flags are ever raised).
See the letter dated February 16, 2010, which speaks of 2 special investigators who had asked for a $150,000 bribe, for which these employees received no suspension, and hardly any investigation.
There’s simply too much to write about in this introduction. Do yourself a favour print the entire site and you will have days of reading. And, when you re-read it a few days later, you’ll find how much corruption you missed the first time...
