silver72 Posted May 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Funny thing about that 3 Billion, it just so happens that the taxes at the border for goods coming in will be 3 billion yearly, as it was pointed out on Thursday in Parliament. The Tories have gone too far with their out right lying and when the oppositions ask about the money missing they just become "Turnaround Tories" and blame someone else .

Argus Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 (edited) Not many pictures in this link http://www.westislandchronicle.com/Blog-Article/b/24212/Harper-has-lost-31-billion-somewhere WWWTT No, but it's shoddy blogging. As an example, this line It was part of $ 12.9 billion the Harper government put aside to fight terrorism. The money was actually put aside by the Chretien government in 2001 and dispersed apparently helter-skelter from there to a number agencies from that point in time. We don't actually know how much was dispersed by Harper, if any, or how much was spent or dispersed before the Tories even took office. It's safe to assume, however, that most was spent in the years immediately after the 9/11 attack by Chretien's government.

But right now he's a treasury minister who's lost his treasure. ... Clement said that some of the money may have ended up as expenditure in Afghanistan, or possibly as expenditure at one of the border crossings with the U.S. If I were Clement I wouldn't talk too much about missing border crossing money.

Topaz Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 True, the Tories should just say "I don't know" because saying it went here and there and can't prove any of it , means the same. I think its worse saying it went here and there and not being able to prove it and therefore, Canadians think, ok, what did they do with it.....what are they hiding.

Bryan Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 Joking aside, I think they'd better find it pdq. That may be easier said than done. If it was either all dispersed undocumented or just not spent under the previous government, there's nothing there for this government to find.

jacee Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 (edited) One thing is for sure they will be working on finding it, not like the previous govermnet's way of just forget it and lets move on.I hope you're right. I fear you're wrong.I don't think Harper takes accountability to taxpayers very seriously. We're just people he has to hoodwink to keep his absolute power. A couple of possibilities: Government on missing $3.1 billion: We left a nice tip Or ... maybe Peter Mackay bought himself a fishing helicopter? Has anybody heard any serious suggestions from Harper about where the money is? Did he donate it to a cat shelter?

PIK Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Harper has had to deal with alot of things that went wrong with the chretien goverment. He has to spend alot of his time cleaning up the boondoggles and mess;s left by the chretien goverment. So what did chretien do for 13 years?

scribblet Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Too many bureaucrats and departments they are losing track, it's a matter of accounting. As Monty Solberg says in his piece today, maybe we need a more simple accounting system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
