• holding that revenue rule did not bar prosecution of a money laundering scheme to defraud the Canadian government of tax revenue
• “Whether our decision today indirectly assists our Canadian neighbors in keeping smugglers at bay or assists them in the collections of taxes, is not our Court’s concern.”
• “Because the act of smuggling violates fundamental notions of honesty, fair play and right dealing, it is an act within the meaning of a ‘scheme to defraud.’ ”
• “The scheme exists although no misrepresentation of fact is made.” (quotation marks omitted)
• “[W]hat is proscribed is [the] use of the telecommunication systems of the United States in furtherance of a scheme” to defraud, and the “identity and location of the victim . . . are irrelevant.”
