$1.4 Million Investigation into Missing Mint Gold Busted by Taxpayer.com
Researchers at the Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) have busted the Royal Canadian Mint for the cost of its investigation into $15.3 million of “missing gold”. Using Access to Information requests, the CTF found that the total cost of the investigation – which concluded that the gold was in fact not missing – was $1,374,846.
Earlier reports cited the auditing costs to be closer to $360,000; however the total cost for financial services, reviews and reconciliation was significantly more.
