I don't know if that's a conspiracy, but it's just plain bureaucracy that we could do without.

Yeah on the face of it, for the average person this all feels like a waste of time. CRA gets all my tax forms before I do, half the time when I file I end up getting the info from the CRA anyway because I don't have it for myself yet. And the one time I did mistype something (years ago before auto-fill) the CRA automatically detected and fixed it with zero input from me whatsoever, they just let me know after the fact
It definitely raised the question; Why the hell am I even doing all this if what I input doesn't even matter?
