Ken Georgetti clearly got it right:<br /><br />"Canadian Labour Congress president Ken Georgetti praised Mr. Flaherty in June for supporting CPP improvements. Now he’s furious.<br /><br />“Voluntary systems don’t work,” he said. “I guess a couple of lunches with the insurance and the banking industry have more effect on this government than Canadians’ public opinion. It’s just absolutely unacceptable in our view.”"Brent Fullardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08515599756822506137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7141615629701321642.post-23107451191315672902010-12-17T08:36:58.832-05:002010-12-17T08:36:58.832-05:00"

Does their "leader" also play golf with Dalton McGuinty, every PC and all insurance industry types in this country?<br />Once this goes through it will ensure any Canadian who has to contribute will never be able to retire with dignity. <br />Bad enough so many companies have switched from DB's to insurance co DC's. Have fun with the Manulife"financial education specialist" managing your account. You will have to clarify with Manulie exactly what one is, how they were trained and how they get paid. Canadians will have 2 GICs and about 4 mutual funds to pick from. <br /><br />Here is a thought - why don't all the politicians have their pensions switched over to Income Plus and insurance co. profits from administering that plan go back to CRA to the tax paying public?

It'll be up against some real tough competition from real estate income trusts held by RSPs and TFSAs, but I predict that Flaherty will level the playing field.<br /><br />On Valentine's Oh-13, Flaherty will hold a press conference to announce a new arrangement.<br /><br />He'll say "If Tax Free Savings Accounts do not pay their fair share, foreign corporations will have to pay more.

The son, apparently, put some old and close friends into Bernie's fund. You have to figure that the son didn't know and trusted his old man.<br /><br />Madoff investors lost $18 billion; see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernard_Madoff.<br /><br />You gotta figure that the son was stricken with terrible guilt feelings.<br /><br />The Honorable James M. Flaherty caused $35 billion of losses to investors who trusted the Most Honorable Stephen J. Harper's promise "Never to double-tax income trusts."<br /><br />Last time I heard James M. Flaherty is still proud of what he did.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
