OTTAWA — Former Conservative MP Rob Anders has been charged with tax evasion. 

The federal prosecution service says Anders is also charged with making misleading statements and for getting a refund or credit than he should not have received.

The charges under the Income Tax Act were first reported by the National Post.

Anders represented a Calgary riding between 1997 and 2015, and the Post reported the charges are linked to his time in office.

He is scheduled to appear in court on Oct. 30.
