"Is the Canadian Taxpayers Federation just a
*BOGUS*
organization like any other 100% financed Government
organization that
criticizes the Government in a "preplan-
ned" and "controlled" manner?" asks the President/Party
Leader of the
Égalité Party of Canada.
Let's check the facts.
The Canadian Taxpayers Federation claims to have "a-
bout"
65,000 nationwide supporters 4000 of which "ap-
parently" are in Ontario (Why are
there SO FEW! in On-
tario?).
The Canadian Taxpayers Federation is NOT small: it
has a federal office in Ottawa and FIVE! provincial of-
fices: one in B.C., one in Alberta,
one in Saskatche-
wan, one in Manitoba, and one in Ontario.
In addition, it has created and runs the Centre of
Abo-
riginal Policy Change located in Calgary.
They claim to be busy conducting research and advo-
cacy
activities.
Here is A SAMPLE of their research.
Their BC Office states in its paper (
Maureen
Bader,
BC Director, CTF - BC Ph: 604-608-6770) "
Getting
People Off the Street" make this
INCREDIBLE
statement: "
In
fact, the people we see living on the
street are made up of two main groups: the
mentally
ill and the drug addicted." (
http://taxpayer.com/main
/news.php?news_id=2604)
On the contrary, the studies done by THE EXPERTS
in Downtown
Eastside Vancouver show that in fact
only one (1) in four (4) homeless persons has a dug
addiction problem.
THE EXPERTS claim the lack of decent low-cost
sub-
sidized housing is THE PROBLEM that is contributing
to 2000 to 3000 people being homeless (NOT
mental
illness, NOT drug addiction).
Add to that the fact that the President/Party Leader of
the
Égalité Party of Canada met people in Vancouver
during the time he was there (mid-April to the
beginning
of July) who were arbitrarily refused provincial social
assistance without any warning.
With no no place to go and the the
shelters FULL, they
were left to fend for themselves on the street.
In some cases, shelters will only take those "approved"
by
the provincial social assistance office.
B.C. Government policy and LACK OF SHELTERS
result in being
FORCED ONTO THE STREET.
In light of this, the quality of research work done
the
Canadian Taxpayers Federation seems VERY DU-
BIOUS in the opinion of the
President/Party Leader
of the Égalité Party of Canada.
"How credible is Canadian Taxpayers Federation?"
he asks.
The Égalité Party of
Canada is NOT as it believes the
crooks on the
Government side meet with the crooks
on the private sector side to create a
situation where
the taxpayer accepts 100% of the risk while the private
sector can be GUARANTEED 15%
return on their in-
vestment.
And the Canadian Taxpayers Federation is one of
the
MAIN PROPONENTS of this model which is must de-
finitely NOT fair to the taxpayer.
And where does the the Canadian Taxpayers
Feder-
ation get ALL THAT MONEY ($$$)
anyway in order to
have such a BIG ORGANIZATION?
From its members?
WHO KNOWS?
What is "the average annual contribution" of
a
typical member?
HOW MUCH is their budget?
WHO KNOWS?
Yet THEY!, the Canadian Taxpayers
Federation, will
OPENLY CRITICIZE the Canadian
Government for
*NOT* being accountable to the Canadian
taxpayer,
but are they?
Apparently NOT.
The IRONY!
As things stand the Canadian Taxpayers Federation
is A
SECRETIVE ORGANIZATION that canNOT be
trusted in the opinion of the President/Party Leader
of
the Égalité Party of Canada.
If THE *REAL* FINANCIAL BACKER Canadian Tax-
payers Federation
is in fact the Federal Government,
then this is A PARODY OF DEMOCRACY as there
seems to be *NO
TRUE* INDEPENDENT VOICE
allowed to honestly criticize the Government's
*MIS-
MANAGEMENT* OF PUBLIC FUNDS.
Does the Canadian Taxpayers Federation criticize
the Government of Canada for about 20% of the
provincial and federal BUDGETS being UNAC-
COUNTED FOR YEARLY!
due to "A LACK OF
FINANCIAL CONTROLS" as reported EVERY
DECEMBER by ALL! the
PROVINCIAL AUDI-
TOR GENERALS including the Auditor General
of Canada?
Apparently NOT.
Does the Canadian Taxpayers Federation criticize
the Government of Canada for NOT demoting, firing,
or jailing anyone, NOT ANYONE! for
the BILLIONS!
of dollars that go missing - YEARLY?
Apparently NOT.
Instead, in late February and early March EVERY-
ONE! gets PAY
RAISES.
And this is fine according to the Canadian Taxpa-
yers
Federation?
With the Égalité Party of Canada in
power their
budget, the name of their auditor, and their mem-
bership list will be MADE PUBLIC on the Internet
BY LAW!
And with the Égalité Party of Canada
in power
ANY TAX MONEY SPENT that is UNACCOUN-
TED FOR will most definitely result in people
being fired,
demoted, or jailed.
It is important to note that the auditor generals
do NOT
criticize the size of the budgets of the
Attorney Generals nor how that money is spent.
Nor does the Canadian Taxpayers Federation.
Yet, there probably are BILLIONS! of dollars
spent on BOGUS!
*MINOR* COURT CASES
DISPATCHED BY ARBITRARY SUMMARY
CONVICTIONS in the opinion of
the Presi-
dent/Party Leader of the Égalité Party of Ca-
nada.
Nor do the provincial and federal AUDITOR
GENERALS comment
on the BILLIONS! of
dollors spent on undercover cops BUMMING
AROUND college and university
campuses,
public parks, shelters, public soup kitchens,
food banks, ... .
Nor does the Canadian Taxpayers Feder-
ation.
Then, there is THE WHOLE BUSINESS OF
GOVERNMENT
OPERATIVES
in organiza-
tions 100% financed by the Government
whose job is to
discredit such an organiza-
tion in the eyes of the
public should it try to
criticize the Government of Canada. These
operatives cost the taxpayers millions of
dollars for which there is NO BENEFIT to
the
taxpayer.
The provincial and federal AUDITOR GE-
NERALS will NEVER
comment on that,
nor will the Canadian Taxpayers Feder-
ation, will they?
With the Égalité Party of Canada in
power
here will be NO MORE! undercover cops
and NO MORE! government operatives
that police those organizations
that are
funded 100% by the Government.
Say NO! to poverty.
Say NO! to UNFAIR taxation.
Say NO! to systemic Government corruption.
.
in order to end proverty.
