MONTREAL – An influential former Quebec union boss has been found guilty of fraud and forging documents stemming from inflated expense claims.
Jocelyn Dupuis was accused of charging the Quebec Federation of Labour for tens of thousands of dollars in expenses by using fake or inflated bills.
Quebec court judge Denis Lavergne found him guilty on Friday of all the charges he was facing.
The charges related to claims made between December 2007 and November 2008, a period in which Dupuis filed 43 expense accounts totaling $225,000.
