LINK: A lot of restaurants using electronic “zappers” to hide their sales from the CRA
Some access-to-information judo by the Canadian Press has uncovered a Canada Revenue Agency investigation into some fishy accounting practices that are apparently pretty widespread in the restaurant industry. The agency looked into 424 restaurants across the country with electronic cash registers for record keeping and found that about a third of them used USB-key “zappers,” or secret features baked into their software to make some of their sales data—and their taxable revenue—disappear. Already, two cases have been prosecuted, resulting in fines and even jail time, and the story quotes a spokesperson as saying the CRA “has every intention of proceeding” on more cases. Yikes. We’re not sure how common this is in Toronto, but the CRA report notes that as the practice spreads, “more and more businesses may feel they need to compete by suppressing sales.” Read the whole story »
The CRA are the worst human rights abusers in Canada ! Any doubt about it? Try me. I’ve been to court three times vs. their mob lawyers from the DOJ and guess what- the mob covers for the MOB. Democracy BS. this is full fledged fascism! Any doubts? Try me. Any doubts? Look at the W5 clips on Wes Kelly or Eli Humby! Fascism is the abuse of authority and the CRA and mob lawyers will abuse YOU until YOU are in poverty! Try me.
You’re a loser Reg. Quit your whining and just pay your share of the taxes like everyone else has to! If you don’t like it, move to another country with lower taxes or more corruption like Greece or Portugal, see the condition they’re in right now? You’re bitter because you got caught! Suck it up! Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time! Canada is a very beautiful country to live in compared to oh so many. The benefits and every day necessities we all have that others countries do not, can to some extent be attributed to the taxes that are paid to fund it.
