(Canadian Press) Taxpayers’ ombudsperson François Boileau will investigate the concerns of Muslim charities and other charities led by people of colour about being inappropriately targeted for audits.
Boileau said Friday he is committing to examining the issues raised by the charities and he will work with these organizations to make sure they receive high-quality services from the Canada Revenue Agency.
“Before we take action, we need to take the time to listen and deepen our knowledge of the issues,” he said in a release.
His office will ask the charities to share their experiences with the agency and will examine all the publicly available documentation and information obtained from the agency related to the issue.
