Calgary Conman Sentenced for Online Fraud

Calgary conman Dave Beauvais gets 28 months in federal prison for orchestrating a massive online fraud scheme during the pandemic, using forged passports and IDs to骗 Alberta Student Aid into approving over half a million dollars in loans—less than 200K actually paid out. The judge rejected house arrest, calling the identity theft especially egregious and stressing deterrence, while the Crown pushed for 30 months and the defense argued for a conditional sentence. Beauvais, 39, now lives in Ottawa but was sentenced in Calgary after a delay. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
