Today I removed a point that read as follows, " Sun Belt Water Inc. - In 1999, Sun Belt Water Inc. of Santa Barbara, California, filed a $10.5 billion claim against Canada under Chapter 11 of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). The claim alleges political corruption at the highest levels of the Canadian government in relation to the issue of bulk water exports an issue that has a high degree of political sensitivity in Canada." This didn't really fit the subject of the article. It is an international trade dispute wherein an annoyed foreign company has made an allegation of corruption in order to bolster their side of the argument. Nothing seems to have come of it vis-a-vis NAFTA. PK T(alk) 16:53, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

Rob Ford used drugs, how is this corruption as defined. This may be a scandal but not outright corruption. In addition the linked article does not mention curruption, just the scandal. I have removed this once, and would like other's opionions on the matter. VViking Talk Edits 15:23, 12 January 2014 (UTC)
It was well known across all of Canada that Rob Ford used illegal narcotics. It is proof of corruption among law enforcement and prosecutors when a public official can be photographed and recorded using narcotics, multiple times, yet never serve the kind of jailtime any other citizen would. — Preceding

Corruption in Ontario is increasingly a major issue in government, civil service, business and non-profit sectors.[citation needed] In the last decade, the Ontario Liberal government has faced serious and high profile corruption cases including eHealth Scandal, Ontario power plant scandal, and Ornge scandal. These cases have implicated the leadership of the Ontario Liberal party, including former three time premier Dalton McGuinty of corruption. The successive Kathleen Wynne led liberal government is facing several corruption cases including for offering bribery during elections.[6]
I placed the citation needed in this, as it appears to be some wiki editors comme Gary rather than cited material. Also, the whole paragraph is highly suspect. The Sun is a right wing climate change denying tabloid. That is the only source given for this highly biased take down. The reason this caught my attention is I saw some right wing extremists on waving this paragraph around the internet as if it were the gospel. It should be pared≥ down for undue weight or at least find some more sources. Wikipedia needs to be better and do better than parroting the Sun. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bagist ( talk • contribs) 20:02, 26 November 2015 (UTC)
from RCMP: "A 2014 report by an undergraduate sociology student at the University of Western Ontario explains the hierarchical structure and subculture of law enforcement in Canada as well as the nature of hero worship in Canadian society that makes it almost impossible to prevent and punish unlawful police misconduct in the country. [1]"
I don't actually question the statement, and I suppose this would lead to abuse of power, but surely a better source is out there Elinruby ( talk) 06:49, 26 May 2016 (UTC)
There is a great deal of information in the panama papers about mining concessions and Canadian companies formed on the supposedly looser Toronto and especially Vancouver stock exchanges. It is not ready to come here but just saying, the businesses are involved in oil, diamonds and timber, tin, cobalt, copper etc and many many shell companies listed on the canadian stock exchanges seem to be involved. If anyone else is working on this right now do you have a preference as to where this should go when it comes? Elinruby ( talk) 09:09, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

The entire article reads as if corruption is a major issue in Canada. However, this is not supported by most of the references quoted. I just changed the first line of the first paragraph, which stated Canada was rated 9th out of 176 countries for corruption. Originally this appeared to imply Canada was the 9th most corrupt nation in the world. However, reviewing the source, I found that the rankings are listed from LEAST corrupt to MOST corrupt, making Canada the 9th LEAST corrupt nation in the world. I made a small change to clarify this.
The rest of the article's tone is extremely critical, which I don't feel is supported by the referenced material.

Despite there being numerous documentations of corrupt actions done by the Canadian Government towards First-Nations populations in Canada.
Also this page also does not include recent events such as the WE scandal despite it also being greatly documented. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.58.100.212 ( talk) 11:20, 27 December 2020 (UTC)
