The Death of Privacy: Third-Party Compulsion

The most alarming weapon in the CRA’s new toolkit is the expanded power to legally compel information, documents, and even oral testimony from third parties.

If software flags that your $800,000 home doesn’t match the low income on your T4 filings, auditors won't just knock on your door. They can legally force the following people to talk
