[. . . . ] BACKGROUND: The Vancouver Winter Olympics Bid Committee had a number of “Persons of Influence” who could be targets for kickbacks, bribes or extortion in return for their help in ‘fast tracking’ the otherwise un-financable $2 billion RAV project. Such targets include Ms. France Chrétien-Desmarais, Mr. Laurent Beaudoin, Chair of Bombardier Inc, Mr. Ken Georgetti, president of the Canadian Labour Congress and Mr. Peter Dhillon, political agent for federal cabinet minister, Herb Dhaliwal, and, with Sue Paish, a managing partner of the CCRA.

This is the first part of a series of posts which go together, more or less. ....

... major career possibilities ... particularly in $$$ laundering for The Department. What precipitated this was an article on the tax department targeting Atlantic Canadians to find more tax money. I will get to it shortly. This is lengthy but there is much that I think is important .

editorial "Public Housing, Private Misery", National Post, May 30, 05; then research the first public housing in the US, Igoe-Pruitt? Igor-Pruitt? Try "air mail" and "blown up". Then there were Cabrini Green in Chicago and others.) There will be added costs down the road for the social services help-for-lost-souls variety.

* Who is going to pay for the blank check that Kyoto is going to become?


... forging ahead economically, China and India ... are going to be able to do so, not only with aid currently being given to China for example, but also on the backs of what the citizens of Canada will be paying them in future in the form of Kyoto credits--that is real Canadians' tax $$$.

The news item on their fortuitous rental--if rental it is--was in the May 7, 05 National Post. (no link have I found) Diane is the superb fundraiser for the Liberals [....]

Then there are the Champagnes

I believe the Turks and Caicos is a tax haven. How much effort has gone into getting to the bottom of people who used to work at DND?
