TORONTO, June 26, 2013 – The Chartered Professional
Accountants of Canada (CPA Canada) applauds efforts by the federal
government to ensure that all Canadian taxpayers are treated fairly.
The government today announced the addition of a new right to the Taxpayer Bill of Rights ensuring that
taxpayers can lodge a service complaint about the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) without fear of reprisal.
“No one expects CRA to be perfect all the time, so issues involving Canadian taxpayers are going to occur,” said Gabe Hayos, vice-president, taxation, CPA Canada. “The new measure will give Canadians added assurance that they can raise concerns with CRA relating to the country’s tax system.”
CPA Canada values its ongoing work as a trusted advisor to the government on the design of fair and effective tax legislation. CPA Canada has established numerous committees featuring the best tax minds from the country’s largest accounting firms to assist with its advisory role. In addition, the organization is preparing the next wave of Canada’s leading tax experts through a number of tax-related courses and conferences.
