While we talk about corruption by politicians in India, the recent political imbroglio in Canada has brought to fore the fact that corruption among politicians exists on an equal scale in Canada too.

Newspapers also bring forth scandals of bogus licenses (there was a driving school in Calgary which was busted & which was unfortunately run by an Indian).

The good thing here is that certain processes are streamlined here & at a lower level you do not see corruption here like the way we see in India.

I would like other people to come forth with corruption issues that they might have faced in their day-to-day life in Canada.

Thanks.

I think he meant it was rather unfortunate that it was an Indian as it reflects negatively on all of us ..

Thanks, Smiley.

That's exactly what I meant.

This driving school was "arranging" for licenses to be issued for driving trucks without the necessary skills.

Thanks.

There may be corruption but not on an equal scale. All my government paper work is done so easily without paying a single cent as bribe here in Canada.

You're right !!!. In India it's down to the lowest level, where it starts affecting the common man for the smallest job, be it a utility bill or approval of some papers by a Govt. office. Infact back in the early 90's my dad said even to get his tax refund he had to bribe the officers.

Something like that does not happen here, atleast I'm not aware of it.

Coruption may not be there in Govt. departments. But it is there in Business.
