White collar

The CRA is huffing and puffing to reassure Canadians “that the minority of tax preparers and promoters who try to make money at the expense of Canadian taxpayers are not getting away with it”.

Granted, my experience does not represent a representative sample; but what I’ve seen of crooked preparers and promoters suggests they have little to fear. The CRA is great at chasing the victims—the easy targets—but not so great at going after the root cause of the problem.
