The last three years have been quiet for Canada Revenue Agency collections. But that has started to change in 2023 – which is bad news for Canadian borrowers already struggling with inflation and record rate hikes. On today’s podcast Scott Terrio and Doug Hoyes breakdown how CERB, CRB, and CEBA loan repayments have impacted Canadians and small business owners, why 2023 is especially concerning for indebted households, and what stronger CRA collections mean if you owe tax debt. They also outline options for dealing with the CRA to avoid a headache. Tune in for an insightful discussion!
