British Columbia's auditor general has found that 45 per cent of the province's ministries have been affected by fraud.
A new report form Michael Pickup says theft was the most common type of fraud that government ministries dealt with between 2021 and 2022.
Pickup says his results suggest not all ministries are following the same approach to risk management or don't have a full understanding of the government-wide framework for managing fraud.
The figures were obtained via questionnaires sent by Pickup's office to 22 ministries last year.
Sgt. David Lee of the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team says the identities of the four people aren't yet being released. He says one of the deceased had a valid firearms licence and access to guns.
