The style is good, or at least alright -- consistant.
Speaking as a new immigrant to Canada and I've had to deal w/ a lot of CAN Gov sites.
Problem is they still use bureaucratic-ese and it's impossible to get a clear answer without calling. I'll give the US IRS a ton of credit there, I can get actual answers and what to do from the website text, but with the IRCC or other Canadian orgs I pretty much have to call and wait on hold to get basic answers.

- amatecha 3y agoOh of course, pretty often the actual content may be missing important details. I've definitely asked more questions of either my accountant or a CRA rep than by reading text on an official website, because all the edge-cases and potential weird scenarios are not covered (unless you read the entire text of all relevant laws and know them offhand, I guess).
