Revenue Canada (former name)

Revenue Canada was the former name of the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), the government agency responsible for administering tax laws and programs in Canada. Its main duties include collecting income taxes, related taxes (like GST/HST), and managing social and economic benefit programs such as the Canada Child Benefit. Essentially, CRA ensures individuals and businesses comply with tax laws, processes tax returns, and distributes government benefits, helping fund public services and infrastructure across Canada.
