Here is an article illustrating the LIE-beral version of justice and social responsibility. With some comments of my own in brackets):
Ontari-owe Ombudsman MARIN: New bail rules are political meddling
Published: November 11, 2017. Updated: November 12, 2017 12:36 AM EST
Filed Under: Toronto SUN/ Opinion/ Columnists
Attorney General Yasir Naqvi has issued new micro-managing and politically correct orders to Ontario’s Crown Attorneys. Henceforth, Crowns will be further restricted in opposing bail in criminal cases. It’s a solution looking for a problem.
Overcrowding and abuse of solitary confinement in the Ontario corrections systems are a wide-spread problem that Premier Kathleen Wynne’s government has closed a blind eye to for the last 14 years.
The problem, and it’s rather a simple one, is that the correctional infrastructure has been sorely neglected. The provincial government hasn’t upgraded the prison system on a wide scale in many years. In Ottawa, for example, a detention centre has been frozen in time since 1971. Prisoners have been found housed in showers for lack of space.
(Gosh- infrastructure NEGLECTED under LIE-beral rule? So what else is new? For decades LIE-berals have faced the yearly budget choice of either SUPPLYING CASH FOR repairs to infrastructure or CASH FOR more gravy for civil service union Hogs- the people who actually elect LIE-berals- in a GROSS CONFLICT of interest and the choice has always been the same- ever more gravy for Hogs while all manner of govt equipment and facilities wear out!)
(AS for the use of solitary confinement- this is just another ho-hum-we don’t care issue for LIE-berals. As is often reported in Cdn media- a significant portion of prisoners have UN-TREATED mental health issues. It is easier and cheaper for LIE-berals to lock these ill ones away in solitary confinement. Jail overcrowding means inmate tempers often flare but it is hard for guards to closely supervise prisoners in such tight quarters to head off fights and of course severe mental health issues also promote friction and fighting- meaning solitary confinement to prevent fights and injuries to untreated crazy people is needed OFTEN. I guess jail and solitary confinement are cheaper solutions to mental health issues than treatment in a psychiatric facility and greedy gravy hungry LIE-berals prefer spending on their own personal comforts rather than on dull necessary stuff like mental health issues and jail crowding!)
Our creative AG announced a new restrictive bail directive telling Crowns to just loosen up and let more accused of crimes out on the streets. Presto – the inmate overcrowding problem gone. A couple of Crown attorneys were at wit’s end and called me about Naqvi’s political meddling.
Every Crown attorney, it has long been held, fulfils a kind of minister of the justice role. They are professionals expected to call the shots on serious criminal offences. The notion of winning or losing is not part of the job.
(LIE-berals have utterly messed up our legal system. It has been 25 years since Statistics Canada first told us that over 80 percent of all criminal court cases are plea bargained- and this is the original LIE-beral mandated solution to over crowded courts and jails. Under LIE-berals- major crimes become minor ones and minor crimes are forgotten entirel;y as criminals make their deals with LIE-beral hug a thug judges under govt orders to CLEAR the backlog of cases- screw justice- just get the case dealt with in some QUICK AND CHEAP WAY!)
(Cops tell us that over 80 percent of ALL crime is drug related- buying or selling, laundering the proceeds, theft by addicts to obtain money to buy drugs, violence between gangs to protect their turf from competitors, the trade in illegal guns and ammunition that gangs need to protect themselves and their product. To make matters worse- dealers have ganged up- recognized that being part of a group is useful- one may lose some autonomy but one gains the protection of the group- against other gangs and against cops- with the gang lying and providing an alibi as needed against possible criminal charges. LIE-berals have responded to this by choosing to see drug addicts and dealers as mis-guided victims and LIE-berals are ignoring the `victims` in the same way they ignore all other costly problems that would cut into their supply of gravy- if the problem were ever to be resolved in any real way!)
(As the number of addicts and shooting victims in need of treatment spirals, the costs also spiral and LIE-berals have responded with ever easier bail terms. Two decades ago a kid in our neighborhood had a job at a local chain store and the kid- along with a second store employee was sent to the basement warehouse for supplies and ran into an armed gang- 3 Black kids with a shotgun. The leader of the gang was ALREADY out on bail for three major crimes: a rape, a previous armed robbery and an attempted murder in a nightclub- the gang banger is committing violent crimes faster than LIE-berals can deal with them!)
(Fortunately our neighbourhood kid was very lucky- the robber who was supposed to be standing guard with the shotgun had put it down and wandered into the nearest trailer to inspect the electronics when our kid showed up. Guard rushed out of the trailer to retrieve the gun and our kid shoved him off the loading dock- with guard hitting his head and spending several weeks in a coma.)
(The gang leader emerged next to investigate the shouting- spotted the other store employee and tried to club him with the bolt cutters he had used to get into the trailer loaded with electronics. The employee got his arm up in time and had his arm shattered- INSTEAD of his head! Our kid knocked gang leader cold with an elbow that shattered the nose of gang leader. The third robber- the youngest one took one look at all the blood and bodies and surrendered quietly.)
(All this mayhem- the shattered arm of the store employee- the smashed nose of the gang leader and the guard in a coma simply because LIE-berals and their Hog allies feel ENTITLED to take so much gravy out of our pockets there is nothing left to manage the legal system and jails! Legal bills, several police investigations, major hospital bills for the guard in a coma, workmans compensation costs for the shattered arm of the other employee- and ALL just to appease LIE-beral lust for gravy instead of protecting the public from gangs! And the rapist/ring leader of the gang NEVER did go to court as he was shot to death for failing to pay his drug debts- so MORE police investigation costs! And Black LIVES Matter reverse racists WONDER why cops believe `carding` of Blacks- AND of anybody else thy suspect- is a useful investigative tool? And LIE-berals are accepting this reverse bigotry for the sake of buying ethnic votes so LIE-berals can cling to power AND GRAVY at any price!)
They-prosecutors- are, according to long-standing jurisprudence, only expected to offer a trial in the public interest and to only seek a finding of guilt if the evidence justifies it. They are appointed by the provincial cabinet by order-in-council in order to provide them with the necessary independence to do their job without political interference. Now, it seems, they are being treated like children we can’t trust.
Crowns are buried in red tape like never before. Their ability to exercise discretion has considerably withered away. Naqvi’s new bail directive is a new attack on their independence.
(Sadly, this latest LIE-beral legal fiddle is just the latest in a LONG LIST! In the 1980`s, LIE-berals changed the way we keep crime statistics. Previously each crime that was committed was listed in an appropriate column- theft, assault, drug dealing and etc...but this was not satisfactory to LIE-berals it seemed probable that the public would soon compare lists of charges against eventual convictions and realize how many crimes LIE-berals were letting disappear with plea bargaining!)
(Under the old system- if you broke into a house that was “breaking and entering”. If you had tools to disarm an alarm- you had “possession of burglar tools”. Find the keys to the family car and load it up with electronics is “theft over $5 grand”. Find a shotgun and load it- “illegal possession of a fire arm”. Hear the cops arrive and fire your newly found shotgun out the window and its “assault with a deadly weapon’, Try to flee in the family van and you get a “reckless driving” charge. Get boxed in and take a punch at a cop and its “resisting arrest”)
(Under the old system- the events listed above would net you seven separate charges and they would be listed that way in 7 separate columns so that anybody interested could see at a glance how many crimes and which type of crimes were committed in the city in a set period of time. Now- thanks to LIE-beral meddling, the 7 crimes are reduced to ONE CRIME SCENE! This seems to make it easier for LIE-berals to HIDE just how many crimes are being forgotten or ignored as thugs move through the LIE-beral version of justice system and major crimes are plea bargained down to minor ones and minor crimes are forgotten entirely! And the amount of crime being committed is ARTIFICIALLY REDUCED!)
(To make matters worse- under the old system you served `consecutive` sentences- commit 3 crimes and get 2 years for one crime, 3 years for a a second and 5 years for a third and you would be looking at 10 years in jail as you worked through each of the sentences. It was LIE-berals who introduced concurrent sentences in which you would serve the 2 years, the 3 years and the five years concurrently- meaning you would be in jail for 5 years- with the other two sentences essentially FORGOTTEN! And it was LIE-berals who then introduced “time off for good behaviour” so your concurrent 5 year term- that used to be 10 years- is now reduced to 3 or even 2 years! It’s a LIE-beral “get out of jail almost free card”! LIE-berals also introduced the concept of “time served” in which dangerous thugs who got caught red handed in some crime were denied bail and had to stay in jail till their trial date- but LIE-beral justice is so slow that it often takes longer to get to a trial than the actual sentence offered by a hug a thug judge- under LIE-beral justice a thug might sit in jail for 3 years only to get a sentence of two years- and LIE-beral hug a thug judges laid awake at night worrying about thug rights! So thugs get `credit` for time served if they are denied bail- meaning you spend one year in jail waiting for the trial but get THREE YEARS CREDIT for time served- all in the name of justice and saving gravy for LIE-berals and union Hog allies!)
(And now jails are so crowded and trials are so backlogged that LIE-beals have decided not to bother with bail- just charge thugs and turn them loose and hope they don’t make too much more trouble! And should we ask if this new LIE-beral bail idea is not just another desperate ploy by LIE-berals struggling to find court space to deal with that mass of illegal immigrants Our idiot Boy Justin has invited here? LIE-berals fired all but two of the immigration judges serving the western half of Canada because of their pro `conservative` view of immigration- in other words the fired judges refused to swallow whatever crap story immigrants fed them and denied entry to more people than LIE-berals considered fair!)
(LIE-berals speak so often of fairness- but seem NOT to understand the word. Why else would they drag their feet in deporting Anthony Dooley? Anthony came from Jamaica- first to United States- where he was quickly arrested and jailed for drug dealing- and then deported. Anthony turned right around and came to Canada- AS A REFUGEE CLAIMANT! Anthony met up with his common law wife Marcia Dooley- also a refugee claimant- both spinning nonsense stories that even LIE-beral judges found hard to swallow! Anthony had two sons and got his ex wife to ship both boys to Toronto. In 2 years Marcia and Anthony managed to beat 9 year old son Randal to death- punched him in the face so hard and so often the autopsy found pieces of his shattered teeth in his stomach!)
(At the time Marcia was arrested for murder- she was also under investigation for welfare fraud and that investigation ended when she was arrested for murder! LIE-berals do NOT want us to know how many hundreds of thousands of dollars govt poverty pimps handed out to a thief and child killer! LIE-berals do not want to answer questions about what their immigration judges were thinking when they refused to immediately deport convicted drug dealer Anthony! LIE-beral legal system has turned into a vast immigrant vote buying, gravy saving activity that benefits ONLY LIE-berals as it HIDES the ugly reality of so called LIE-beral justice! And to add insult to injury we have craven coward leaders handing out govt grants to reverse racist bigots of groups like Black Lives Matter and Idle No More to enable them to push for more false justice! LIE-berals are that desperate for votes so they can cling to power at any price- they are willing to turn our society upside down!)
Unfortunately, the situation makes clear that our AG has no experience in criminal courts. It is ignorance meeting naivety. More concerning is that it will expose the public to greater risk from criminal offenders.
Being released on bail, according to the Criminal Code is, for most offences, the norm. If the Crown opposes the release of the accused, the onus shifts to the Crown to demonstrate the accused is a flight risk, presents a high risk of committing an offence if released or that the seriousness of the offence combined with a strong Crown case would be shocking to the public.
(LIE-beral justice is NO JUSTICE! They cannot rehabilitate hard core criminals, they refuse to punish hard core criminals, and they cannot afford to lock up hard core criminals to protect us because the costs are prohibitive and LIE-berals NEED that gravy to buy votes and cling to power!)
The new bail directive’s objective is jovially described in Naqvi’s press release as reducing pre-trial custody. The Criminal Code dictates how Crowns should make decisions on whether to oppose bail. And a judicial officer, a Justice of the Peace makes the final decision.
But now, Crowns have to contend with platitudinous directives such as “reinforcing that recommendations for conditions of release should be connected to both the circumstances of the accused and the facts of the case, while at the same time, meeting public safety concerns.”
(The “circumstances of the accused” means sympathy for thugs! It means judges MUST swallow any stupid sob story thugs utter in court!)
I can assure you that if someone is released on bail according to Naqvi’s new marching orders and commits a heinous crime, Naqvi will be hiding under his comfy desk, while the Crown who agreed to his release will be strung out to dry, second-guessed and humiliated publicly to no end at a coroner’s inquest or other public inquiry.
But the one who should really have blood on his hands is Naqvi.
(Absolutely right! LIE-berals routinely enjoy second guessing cops who must deal with lunatics without proper equipment! Irt is LIE-berals who refuse to give cops tazers and bean bag shooting weapons they could use to knock down and disarm crazy people instead of having no choice but to pull their pistols and fire when nuts attack! And now LIE-berals will have the chance to crap on prosecutors as well! This is CLASSIC LIE-beral policy- anything that goes wrong is ALWAYS the fault of somebody else! LIE-berals NEVER MAKE GROSS OR SELFISH MISTAKES! Just ask them and see!)

Not to mention immature. I can’t take anyone who uses the term “LIE-berals” or any other childish changing of any party names or the names of other people. We get it, you don’t agree with them or like them but it doesn’t mean you have to act like an 8 year old.
Good thing this happened in Tennessee. They will be firing up Ole Sparky!
You’re in for a disappointment if you really think they’re going to do that.
Probably, but it would be good to see the perpetrators sweat for awhile. I wouldn't rule it out though as they are not averse to Ole Sparky down there as that sniper found out a few years back.
Is there anyone on the forum more immature or childish than the author of the post you replied to?
Not much except for your I.Q. rating!

It seems Ole Sparky is now obsolete in Tennessee, legal injection now being the prescribed punishment. Perhaps they could move the trial next door to Virginia.

Blood runs cold: Toronto Police homicide clearance rate plummets
By Brad Hunter. Published: December 11, 2017. Updated: December 11, 2017 10:11 AM EST
Filed Under: Toronto SUN/ News/ Toronto & GTA
TORONTO — Anthony Earl Smith is the first entry on an inglorious list. The 41-year-old was shot to death on Jan. 8, around 7:45 a.m. on a Sunday, around Queen and Seaton Sts. Smith was — quite literally — number one with a bullet. The city’s first homicide of 2017.
The murder remains unsolved.
During the past five years, the clearance rate for homicides in the city has plunged to an alarming 40%.
Anthony Earl Smith, 41, was the city’s first murder victim of the year. His case is unsolved.
For murders involving guns, the solve rate hovers under 10%, sources told the Toronto Sun.
“It’s significant — 40% is the worst in years,” Toronto Police Association president Mike McCormack told the Sun. “It’s not the investigators, they’re among the best in the business.”
In 2015, the clearance rate was a respectable 64%.
(In the 1960`s the gun murder solution rate was OVER NINETY PERCENT!)
In addition, in 2012, Toronto cops made 58,000 arrests. In 2016? Just 29,000.
(I suggest that a good part of the reduced number of arrests is that criminals are now much more likely to be “ganged up” and able to operate more securely- knowing that other gang members have their backs and will warn if civilian witnesses may approach a crime scene. Further- gang members- and their relatives offer up alibis that cops cannot easily penetrate! Many of these gang members are the result of FAILED LIE-beral immigration policy which lets in any goof who looks capable of marking an X beside the name of a LIE-beral candidate! Not only do LIE-berals appear un-interested in the educational standards of immigrants- LIE-berals actually seem to prefer ill educated ones with limited language skills as such people are very much dependent on LIE-beral welfare and other govt aid- making it easier to BUY the votes of such people so desperate LIE-berals can cling to power at any price!)
McCormack said the crisis is exacerbated by significant cuts in the number of cops on the street — a drop in 600 officers in the last five years — who frequently gathered bits of intelligence organically that solved cases.
He underplayed the effects of carding on the drop in cleared murders.
(IN other words “carding” DOES WORK! But McCormac does not wish to pick a fight with Black Lives Matter reverse bigots or their cravenly cowardly LIE-beral political “enablers”! The Toronto (RED) Star did an article a year back telling us- one time only- how eerily silent the Old City Hall Courts had become once carding was ended! No police contact with thugs means no trouble-for thugs!)
“It’s not so much carding but rather the fact that pro-active policing is no longer existent,” McCormack said.
Tess Richey, 22, vanished Saturday, Nov. 25, 2017, after a night out at a bar in the Village with a friend and was found dead at an abandoned building near Church and Wellesley Sts. four days later. Her homicide has not been solved.
According to the TPA, the model for policing in the city is broken and makes for grim reading:
— Not enough boots on the ground to engage proactively with the community and gather intelligence.
(More eyes means more potential witnesses. And it does not help that LIE-berak legal proceedures are keeping cops standing around on crime sites much longer while they wait for search warrants or for forensic specialists and etc. LIE-berals have even ordered Canada Post to deliver parcels under a certain size- even if they are suspected or even known to contain such contraband as forged Ontari-owe health cards made in Nigeria- which means cops must allow the parcel to be delivered and then wait and watch to see who picks it up- IF they can spare the manpower to wait around like that! Ponder that next time you are in pain and waiting endlessly for a doctor to get to you in hospital!)
— Officers more reactive than proactive — they are running from call to call, trying to clear the outstanding emergency calls.
— Enforcement stats down across the board.
(LIE-berals have completely gutted our legal system. LIE-berals cannot rehabilitate hard core criminals. Refuse to punish criminals. Refuse to spend the money needed to treat mentally ill- or even to force them to take needed medication. And LIE-beals refuse to permanently lock up career criminals to protect society from any more depredations! In addition, LIE-berals are shamelessly plea bargaining criminal charges so that major crimes become minor offenses and minor offenses are forgotten entirely- LIE-berals are HIDING crime rates and sneering at us because we do not feel safe on our streets!)
— Other duties mean less time for officers to protect the community and engage with citizens.
— Many divisions struggle to fill even half of their patrol cars at the start of the shift.
— Detectives are telling TPS that there has been a noticeable loss of intelligence due to a lack of proactive policing.
“It’s just gone, nothing but call to call,” McCormack said of the crisis. “In the past, a lot of that intelligence was gathered by frontline cops. That’s now having an impact on solving crimes.”
The union chief said solving gun-related homicides has always been tough, but that task is now thankless and nearly impossible.
“And it’s the brazenness … a lot of these murders are happening in public places,” he said. “Downtown, they look at these murders and think it’s a blip. Tell that to the lady running for her life while the bullets are flying at Sheridan Mall in the middle of the afternoon.”
McCormack added that all murders aren’t considered equal in the eyes of politicians.
“The bottom line is that we’re down officers and the ones we have are being pushed to the limit,” McCormack said.
“When you’re continually putting out fires, it doesn’t give you a chance to get ahead of the game. And that’s what’s happening.”
Tess Richey, 23, and Malique Ellis, 21, are homicides number 56 and 57, respectively, the most recent additions to a roster of heartache.
So far, both slayings are unsolved.
HOMICIDE CLEARANCE RATE
2014: 58%
2015: 64%
2016: 55%
2017 SO FAR: 40%
STAFFING
— Current Uniform strength: 4,978 (with Senior Officers, Chief and Deputies total increases to 5,038).
— TPS departures as of Dec. 5: 373 officers.
— 149 resignations from uniform and civilian members combined — 62 of those joined other police services.
— Of the 373 total members who have departed or have given notice they will depart the Service in 2017 (this number includes retirements and the senior officers), 229 are from the uniformed group.
(STATISTICS: Toronto Police Association)
What`s REALLY FUNNY is the number of LIE-berals who claim not to read ANY of my stuff- but who can quote chapter and verse on parts they do not like! HAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Here is an article illustrating how desperate LIE-berals are becoming as ALL their policies fall into utter disgrace.

Finance Minister Bill Morneau and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau hold copies of the federal budget on their way to the House of Commons in Ottawa, Wednesday, March 22, 2017.THE CANADIAN PRESS/Adrian Wyld
Tax changes in the U.S., the Auditor General’s report on the Canada Revenue Agency and domestic tax reforms announced by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government, are new reasons why the Liberals should immediately appoint a royal commission on taxation.
(Oh yes- LIE-berals would be only too happy to find others to blame for THEIR MESSES! LIE-berals are pushing corporate taxes HIGHER so they will have even more of OUR MONEY available to BUY civil service Hpg votes! LIE-berals have issued a series of VAST IOU`s to Hogs in exchange for their votews in past elections but sadly we do not have the cash to allow LIE-berals to honour their IOU`s- much less to supply the NEW cash needed for the latest LIE-beral promises!)
Its results and recommendations need to be ready before the next federal election, so we can have a proper debate about how and when to tax Canadians.
(LIE-beral tax policy is spinning in MAD CIRCLES! Yankees are reducing their taxes and putting major pressure on Cdn economy by reducing our competitiveness and pressuring LIE-berals to do the save to save jobs- nut lower taxes flies in the face of LIE-beral/Hog gravy train needs!)
Last July, Finance Minister Bill Morneau kicked the hornets’ nest of taxation by attacking small business owners in an announcement making changes to the way private corporations are taxed. Unfortunately, he did so in in a way that pitted Canadians against each other.
In November, I wrote that it was time for “Carter Deux.” It has been 55 years since then-prime minister John Diefenbaker appointed Kenneth Carter to review Canada’s taxation system and more than a half century since it reported in 1966 that “a buck is a buck.”
((In that 55 years LIE-berals have borrowed madly in an orgy of idiot spending and mad debt building while our infrastructure ROTS and we now face the need for emergency repairs to roads, bridges, water systems, affordable housing, electrical grid- to name some of the major needs! We CANNOT afford both gravy for Hogs and the massive needs for infrastructure repairs! LIE-beral weasel words and propaganda shills will not alter our bankrupt status!)
Given the massive and transformational changes to the economy, technology and the very sophisticated tax planning today that can yield unwelcome if not illegal results, I argued we should start considering what our tax system should look like in the 21st century.
(Why don’t we start by hitting at the LIE-beral friends named in the Paradise Papers as regular users of highly suspect offshore tax havens- rather than bhitting at the poorest Cdns? After all, LIE-berals are fond of telling us they are all about fairness! Or is that ANOTHER LIE-beral LIE!)
Now there are three new reasons why the government needs to act urgently.
First, mid-November saw the release of Auditor General Michael Ferguson’s report, which included a rebuke of the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). The audit of the CRA’s call centres found that customer service is abysmal.
Ferguson reported that taxpayers had to call about four times in a week just to get through to the CRA. He found only 36% of callers were able to connect and that 30% of the answers by staff were incorrect. Ferguson concluded: “When I look at these audits together, I find that once again, I’m struck by the fact that departments don’t consider the results of their programs and services from the point of view of the citizens they serve.”
(Yes- that report is a fine example of the insane complexity of the LIE-beral designed tax system that offers up so very many tax loopholes for LIE-beral friends! Cdns have NOT forgotten LIE-beral finance minister Paul Martin- the owner of Canada Steamship Lines- moving hundreds of millions of dollars in assest out of Canada with NO need to pay any taxes as he used loopholes in his own legislation! This alone is a fine reason NOT to allow LIE-berals to tinker with tax law at such a critical time!)
Second, in December, the U.S. Senate enacted drastic tax code changes President Donald Trump achieved his first major legislative victory. Canada has lost many of the tax advantages it once had over the U.S. when it comes to business and investment because the Americans have lowered and changed many of their taxes.
(While LIE-berals DRIVE UP our costs with electricity price gouging, their idiot carbon crap and trade scam and their array of other taxes and fees and crazy deficits!)
It’s time for Canada to make its own changes to compete with the U.S. and other countries in order to attract new investment and jobs.
Third, in mid-December, we saw the Liberals announce their own tax changes at the 11th hour, as members of Parliament were running for the exits for their holiday break. If we are going to change the way private corporations are taxed, then we need to look at how we tax trusts, offshore investments, executive bonuses and stock options.
(And those mid December tax changes have pushed ALL Cdn prices Up and eroded Cdn competitiveness while infuriating the vast majority of Cdns- this is NOT progress!)
That is, if the government really wants to change the system to promote fairness and transparency. We have seen foreign governments collect hundreds of millions of dollars in lost taxes from people named in the Panama papers.
(LIE-berals care NOTHING for “fairness” for anybody except themselves- their fairness would see them become dictators for life!)
The amount of money recouped in Canada, to my knowledge, is zero dollars — not a single penny — from the Canadians listed in those papers. Is it any wonder that Canadians get upset at tax changes on small business, when we apparently do nothing to go after the top one per cent?
(LIE-berals like Warren are talking in circles about attacking the one percent! For instance- former LIE-beral prime minister Jean Chretien is ONE of the one percent and he and his pals are protected!)
We live in a time of record employment and high productivity. What better time to look at the tax system holistically than when we are having so much success economically?
(We also live in a time of McJobs- with a level of pay and benefits that has never been harder to live on thanks to LIE-beral meddling! And thanks to LIE-beral vote buying and idiot deficits we are also exploring RECORD levels of debt and previously un-imagined levels of bankruptcy! And as added spice- LIE-berals are BORROWING money to import tens of thousands of future jihadists to threaten our national security and personal safety!)
A royal commission on taxation can consult and work with unions, academia, chambers of commerce and other industry leaders.
(In other words, Warren wants all the Hogs who have made our fiscal mess in the first place to tell us how to resolve their shortage of gravy and entitlements!)
There is a better way for all of us to pay our fair share of taxes, while at the same time attracting new business and providing proper customer service to Canadians at the CRA. Now, more than ever, it is time for a royal commission on taxation.
Jim Warren is a Liberal strategist who has worked for Ontario premier Dalton McGuinty and Toronto mayor Mel Lastman.
(And that says it all about the GROSS BIAS of Warren- he is a LIE-beral strategist! WE can trust NOTHING Warren tells us as it is all filtered through the lense of LIE-beral need!)
