    9 months house arrest for extorting $300,000? Really? That's it? We pretty much did house arrest during the pandemic. That's a cake walk!

      The CRA's doing the right thing. That $300,000 was income from their business. They did not pay tax on it. They subsequently gave that money to this fraudster on their own free will. They should NOT have done that considering it was in NO WAY related to their business. The couple did it anyways. Why should they escape tax? Every other business in Canada pays tax on income. Why should they not?

      As I said, exactly like an armed robbery. This was extortion and until the CRA goes after robbery victims to collect the tax on what they “willingly” gave to the criminals it’ll remain unbalanced. The government is in fact the biggest extortionist there is so of course they can’t see a problem with it other than someone pushing into their territory
