Wake up and smell the fear, says Paul DioGuardi, senior partner at DioGuardi &amp; Company, Canada’s foremost tax amnesty firm. Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) may be out to get you.
Since 2004, when Revenue Canada became an independent agency, more and more Canadians have been under tax surveillance. As the pressure to collect more tax dollars grows, any Canadian taxpayer can be at risk for a secret “lifestyle” audit or become caught in one of numerous tax infractions. The trick is to know how CRAworks and, at the same time, learn the simple and effective strategies―both offensive and defensive―to avoid tax traps and protect your home and other important assets. This is the guide that every tax-paying Canadian, including the self-employed, small business owners and investors, should read. The Taxman Is Watching delivers accurate, accessible and often little-known information, as well as real-life “Tales from Tax Hell.” It also:
• debunks the common myths about the Canada Revenue Agency • shows you the “red flags” that may cause your return to be audited or re-assessed • helps you protect your assets and fight back • offers practical advice on when to get a tax lawyer • tells you what to do when your accountant isn’t your friend

From the shores of Grand Cayman Island to an Ottawa basement loaded with secret bank records and the world’s first bulletproof vest, tax lawyer Paul DioGuardi’s clients have taken him places he never could have imagined. Now, Canada’s most (only?) popular taxman returns with a collection of stories of sensational tax dodges gone wrong — or right. Diligent, eagle-eyed, and with an understanding of the tax system that only a former CRA man possesses, DioGuardi retells injustices that threatened to upend ordinary lives, snatching hapless Canadians from the jaws of a bureaucratic beast. When tax shelters aren’t all they were cracked up to be, DioGuardi steps in to shore up the foundation — or get out before the whole thing crashes down. And if that happens to mean a trip to Mauritius or Luxembourg, so much the better.
