Cash tips aside, I find it frustrating that not all tips that run through the credit/debit machine aren't captured by the employer and reported on behalf of the server. (again with the 'controlled' and 'direct' nomenclature) Just take the grey area away where service industry workers can choose to report earnings.

I see what you're saying and it makes a degree of sense but its sort of an intangible line that people are hesitant to cross that permeates the restaurant industry.
The Restaurant doesnt want to do this because it could be construed as 'selling out' their servers costing them money and further the establishment doesnt want to assume this responsibility because it means that if they screw up they're the ones with issues with CRA.
