Documents reveal that the Minister of National Revenue gave a sweetheart tax deal to a corporation using Ireland as a tax haven, which is a breach of the CRA's own rules. Whistle-blowers in the minister's department raised alarm bells, saying the deal \u201cundermines the...integrity of the CRA\u201d.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7113797\" data-originallang=\"en\">Will the Minister of National Revenue tell Canadians why there is one tax code for normal Canadians and a secret tax code for friends of the Liberal government?</p>",

Des documents r\u00e9v\u00e8lent que la ministre du Revenu national a accord\u00e9 un arrangement fiscal pr\u00e9f\u00e9rentiel \u00e0 une soci\u00e9t\u00e9 utilisant l'Irlande comme paradis fiscal, ce qui constitue une violation des r\u00e8gles de l'ARC, l'Agence du revenu du Canada. Des lanceurs d'alerte au sein de son minist\u00e8re ont agit\u00e9 des drapeaux rouges, all\u00e9guant que l'accord \u00ab porte atteinte \u00e0 l'int\u00e9grit\u00e9 de l'ARC \u00bb. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7113797\" data-originallang=\"en\">La ministre du Revenu national peut-elle expliquer aux Canadiens pourquoi il existe un code fiscal pour les Canadiens ordinaires et un autre code fiscal secret pour les amis du gouvernement? </p>"
