Almost every executive in the federal government—98 percent—received bonuses last year totalling just under $200 million, according to Canadian treasury data. That brings the total federal bonuses to more than half-a-billion during the pandemic years, says the Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CFT).
“Canadians are worried about missing a meal, but bureaucrats aren’t even worried about missing their bonus,” said Franco Terrazzano, CFT federal director, in a release March 21.
