CRA execs party with industry players under investigation

Over the last several years, CRA enforcement execs have attended posh receptions that were sponsored by firms that the agency was in the process of investigating, CBC reports.

The firms in question are:

• KPMG, which CRA alleged ran a sham offshore tax dodge for rich Canadians;
• Fraser Milner Casgrain (now known as Dentons), a law firm that allegedly helped KPMG with the offshore scheme; and
• Osler, a law firm that’s representing KPMG in court.
