money laundering in Canada via the Dominican Republic

Not sure where to post this, but it involves a Chinese international student arriving in Canada from the D.R. as well as parents arriving in Canada with visas issued by the Canadian Embassy in the Dominican Republic, and apparently laundering millions of dollars. Sounds like the D.R. was the passageway to enter Canada and start laundering money from China.

I wonder why they felt the need to come through the DR? Having millions to invest would open the doors to most countries.

That is a lengthy article, and one microscopic example of the massive level of corruption and deceit.

Very interesting that they’re going through the DR.

Greed on both the Domincans and Chinese parts. Canada has started looking at the Chinese in a big way as there have been several investigations in Canada looking into the Chinese property purchasing, casino spending, and a host of other ingenious techniques to launder money.
