Calling taxes a fine is about the most american thing ever...

I think what they meant was forcing people to do it all by hand invites mistakes, which are then fined.

Happened to my dad once in Canada.

He missed a savings/checking account which earned some interest. CRA knows about these as the bank sends it to them.

They made a big deal about hiding it and fined him with interest.

It's totally stupid.
