Perry Fontaine, 55, has also been ordered to pay $1.8 million
court was told how he helped set up two phoney consulting firms that received millions of dollars in federal program payments that were supposed to go to the treatment centre. Fontaine personally received $2.36 million.
The scheme ran for nine years until it was discovered in the year 2000. Health Canada cut off the centre's funding in December that year because staff wouldn't co-operate with an audit.
Two other officials sentenced
Patrick Nottingham, Health Canada's former director in Manitoba, was fired after a departmental audit found he had improperly approved $6 million in funding to the centre. He was sentenced in November 2005 to a conditional sentence of two years less a day and ordered to repay $1.14 million.
