'No one is beyond our reach': Canada joins 5-nation alliance to fight tax crime globally

Canada is teaming up with four other countries to combat global tax crime.

Made up of tax agencies in Canada, the U.S., U.K., Australia and the Netherlands, the new operational tax enforcement alliance — the J5, or Joint Chiefs of Global Tax Enforcement — has been tasked with fighting offshore tax evasion, fraud and money laundering.

The alliance will build enforcement capacity by sharing information and intelligence, piloting new initiatives and carrying out joint operations, according to information provided by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS).

Trudeau's chief fundraiser linked to Cayman Islands tax scheme

In the early summer of 2015, Justin Trudeau was the star attraction at a private fundraiser in Montreal hosted by philanthropist and financier Stephen Bronfman.

Bronfman, an heir to the Seagram family fortune and a close Trudeau family friend, was revenue chair of the Liberal Party. That day, according to news reports, the two men raised $250,000 in under two hours.

Within weeks, the Liberals would launch their federal election campaign, sweeping to power on a "Real Change" platform that focused on the middle class and a promise to tax the rich.

"Our government has long known — indeed, we got elected — on a promise to make sure that people were paying their fair share of taxes," Trudeau said shortly after his election victory. "Tax avoidance, tax evasion is something we take very seriously."

But an investigation by the CBC, Radio-Canada and the Toronto Star has found that Bronfman and his Montreal-based investment company, Claridge Inc., were key players linked to a $60-million US offshore trust in the Cayman Islands that may have cost Canadians millions in unpaid taxes.
