What happened

Some supportReported by 2 outlets

Auditor General Karen Hogan released reports detailing failures across several government programs. One report concluded that the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC) failed to carry out its role in overseeing federal anti-money laundering laws, finding the oversight "weak". The report noted that providing financial data to police took an average of four months after law enforcement flagged a concern.
