The Canada Revenue Agency has the highest volume of paper records among all
federal departments and agencies.
The most recent inventory found that all the hard-copy tax files pressed
together would stretch some 241 kilometres, nearly filling a giant
shelf from Toronto to Kingston, Ont.
"The agency is constrained by law from disposing of records before certain
timeframes and conditions are met," said spokesman David Walters. "For
example, most individual paper tax forms are kept for five years."
