Tax department employee creates online game to vent his frustration with taxpayers

I Get This Call Every Day is the brainchild of Brampton native David S. Gallant, a “numb meat Popsicle,” as he rather imaginatively styles his day job as a customer service representative who fields taxpayers’ calls.

National Revenue Minister Gail Shea is not amused. Her communications director, Clarke Olsen, sent an email to the Star Tuesday stating, “The Minister considers this type of conduct offensive and completely unacceptable. The Minister has asked the Commissioner (of Revenue, Andrew Treusch) to investigate and take any and all necessary corrective action. The Minister has asked the CRA to investigate urgently to ensure no confidential taxpayer information was compromised.”
