Samya and Gary, who are both insurance representatives, are having lunch together.

Comprehensive and Detailed In-Depth Explanation: Gary’s scheme involves creating a fictional company to fraudulently sell insurance, constituting fraud under the Criminal Code of Canada (Section 380), punishable by up to 14 years imprisonment if Samya participates. Option C reflects this severe legal consequence. Option A (CSF sanctions) applies to ethical breaches within professional conduct, like fines or suspension, but fraud exceeds this scope. Option B (Distribution Act penalties) includes fines up to $175,000 (Section 458), not $1,000,000, and is less severe than criminal charges. Option D (liability insurance) is irrelevant, as it doesn’t mitigate criminal liability. The Ethics manual and LLQP prohibit fraudulent acts, emphasizing criminal repercussions for such schemes.
