A Quebec fraud ring has been uncovered by the province’s health insurance board working in tandem with the RCMP. According to preliminary reports an immigration consulting firm has been distributing fake Quebec health cards that are being used by illegal immigrants as proof of residency in the province. Revenue Quebec conducted raids this past week in Montreal and Laval at the locations of an immigration consulting company, but it is unclear whether there is a direct link between the raids and this case. Revenue Quebec suspects this firm of producing false statements for non-residents dating back to 2004.
