As to why it happened, the CRA doesn't cut a tax refund cheque on a value below $10. It's rather silly that it is different with other benefits cheques. But, as you say, that is merely a bug in the process. Nicholson, of course, had to apologize due to the optics of it, but other than that, meh.
The cutoff for tax refunds is $2. I have a coworker who does his returns before Feb 28 and if he has amounts owing he will make an RRSP contribution big enough to turn his amount owing into a $2 refund cheque
