North York industrial bakery used temp agencies to make millions in false tax deductions, Canada Revenue Agency says | The Star

A North York industrial bakery where five temp workers have died on the job used an elusive network of temporary help agencies to claim over $25 million in false tax deductions, according to the Canada Revenue Agency.

Fiera Foods, which describes itself as one of the continent’s leading pastry manufacturers, claimed millions of dollars in tax credits and business expense deductions for the temps that made up the majority of its workforce.

But tax authorities found the temp agencies supplying those workers had “no office locations, management nor administrative personnel,” according to court filings obtained by the Star. The CRA also found the majority of temps the company said were on its payroll did not appear to work for the bakery or the agencies in question.
