The government is the most powerful creditor in Canada and has unique remedies available to it. For example see [[Creditors%27 Remedies against Debtors (10:II)#6. Garnishment of Statutory Benefits | Section II.B.6: Garnishment of Statutory Benefits]]. There is also a category of government entities called “tax payer support entities.” For debts owed to these agencies the six year limitation period still applies. Commercial crown corporations of self-sufficient entities do not belong to this category. Unpaid ambulance fees and Medical Services Plan premiums (which were eliminated starting January 1, 2020) are examples of tax payer support entities.
