Canada Post fraudster to serve 28 months
A North Battleford woman who defrauded Canada Post of close to $326,000 was sentenced to two years and four months in custody at Provincial Court in North Battleford, Monday.
Judge David Kaiser accepted a joint submission recommended by Crown prosecutor Mitch Piché and Defence lawyer Ivan Frank in the case involving Susan Boyer.
Boyer, who was charged with intent to defraud Canada Post of cash money exceeding $5,000 by concealing funds obtained by Canada Post, between Jan. 2011 and Nov. 2015, in North Battleford, previously pleaded guilty.
“I apologize to my family and friends and my employer Canada Post,” said Boyer when she addressed the court,” her voice breaking as she attempted to hold back her tears. “I have let them down and I am deeply sorry and ashamed… I will not let this define me. I hope to become a better person.”
