I'm surprised to see that you are still audacious enough to be presenting the lease to own option as a legitimate method of paying drivers to corporations instead of as employees when, based on the wording of your advertisement above, they'd clearly be working as what Revenue Canada defines as employees? From everything I read, the concept of the "never never plan" as a legitimate way to pay independent contractors no longer meets government requirements.

Link to CRA guidance below:
 
What happens when you fire the driver the day before hes about to make his last payment on the truck?

You get a free and clear truck for a mere 2500$
 
“Be paid to a corporation” . Isn’t that the definition of Drivers Inc? No source deductions, WSIB, Health Tax, etc, etc.?

They structure their truck rental agreement in such away that they can convince the driver that its a legitimate process. I'd be extremely interested in seeing if there's been an actual CRA ruling on their structure- if its actually been approved by CRA then my preconceptions may be entirely wrong. If it hasn't though, well....


It might be prudent to apply the duck test in this situation when assessing their proposed structure for employees - if it walks like a duck, talks like a duck - then....
Its also possible that CRA has a better opinion of their practices than the Ontario MOL?
