Public servants are opening up about how their lives have been turned upside down by the federal pay system fiasco long after the promised fix.

With paycheques currently totalling $0, Jordan jokes they "volunteer" for the government of Canada.

Now, Jordan is currently making ends meet by finding other sources of income and reaching into savings. "When this overpayment … is finally addressed, who knows … what's going to happen next year?" Jordan said. "There seems to be no end in sight for this. It's just been a nightmare."Christiane Villeneuve is retired, but that didn't stop the federal government from sending her another letter in February, demanding more money.

"I had to take anti-depressants, I had panic attacks, anxiety attacks …I got to bed at night so worried that what's going to happen tomorrow, you know?" said Villeneuve. A public servant of more than 30 years, Villeneuve says she expected fair treatment from her employer. "I had no options. I lost my home," she said. "I have two daughters currently 18 and 11 who grew up in a beautiful lovely home … Their lives crumbled due to Phoenix."

In February 2020, CRA sent her a letter stating she owed $6,926.38 in overpayments. A few months later, it sent another letter saying that balance "was not accurate," and that she in fact owed $5,925.88.

Hundreds of international students in limbo after Scarborough, Ont., college suspends spring enrolment | CBC NewsApproximately 400 international students studying at a private school in Scarborough say they are under extreme emotional distress after the college suspended their enrollment. Fraud college? All these 'specialty' colleges that have sprung up in the past 20 years are a scam sanctioned by the Canadian government as a means to bypass our regular immigration rules. This CBC report feels incomplete. What exactly is the schools practice on enrollment letters and how has changed? Why is the student on the picture holding a sign in Chinese (!) translating as 'support international students'?

This is so embarassing. Having to use military resources to make up.for.his failures. Would never have happened under Trump Say what u will, Trump would have builtn7 factories in a week. I can't wait until the CBC is defunded and this type of political journalism chicanery is softened to a whimper. Independent journalists would get to the truth. Instead, we have political positioning and woke buzz words that pull at the heartstrings of the masses. The jig is up!
