Isn’t this “tipping off”? Which is a crime in itself.

I'm not a lawyer, but unless there's a gag order, I don't think it's a crime to tell someone you're being raided by police, especially if that someone is your security or legal staff.
Now, if they're found guilty, I have no problem "executing" the corporate charter as a death sentence. Just laws need to have teeth, and no piddly $10M fine is a deterrent.
Where I grew up, yes that is a crime, at least in the sense it's something to be ticketed for, they're not going to haul you to jail.
In the UK, in respect to the Proceeds Of Crime Act 2002. Financial regulations tend to be fairly universal in the West so I don’t doubt Canada has them. Start jailing people who send these messages and it will soon stop.
