CRA Extends Tax Deadlines in Atlantic Canada in Wake of Fiona
The federal government is extending tax relief to people, businesses and charities affected by post-tropical storm Fiona in Atlantic Canada.
National Revenue Minister Diane Lebouthillier says she asked the Canada Revenue Agency to explore relief options as soon as she learned about the storm’s devastating impact.
