Sample on-the-record quote
"Most Canadians who lose money to crypto fraud aren't reckless — they're targeted by operators who spend weeks building trust before the first deposit. The realistic question isn't 'how did this happen', it's whether the funds touched a regulated exchange in time for compliance to act. That window is short, and it's why reporting the day it happens matters more than the report itself."
