The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) said it is attempting to recover $10 billion in benefits given to Canadians who were later found to be ineligible for the programs upon further review.
In a statement to The Epoch Times, the agency said around $14 billion was given to individuals that did not qualify for the programs like the Canada Emergency Response Benefit (CERB) or Canada Recovery Benefit (CRB). The CRA began informing them that payment was due back in 2022, and since then it has recovered around $4 billion.
