Tax man, heal thyself

On one hand, my telecom company and I have top secret security clearance from the federal government, and yet another part of the Ottawa bureaucracy is convinced we're crooks.

It doesn’t add up.

There has been much talk lately about Canada feeling broken and our story does little to dispel such talk.

Unequivocally, we are not crooks.

And just as unequivocally, Ottawa is broken when one department – Canada Revenue Agency – accuses us of stealing from the taxman while law enforcement agencies see the value of us helping protect the treasury from nefarious people using technology and advanced networks . . .
