More comments on Harpers misappropriation of your tax dollars for partisan purposes

Letter to the Editor, Toronto Star, May 19/15

Re: Tories should stop using our money for their ads, May 15

Last week I went on the Passport Canada website to learn how to renew an expiring passport. What I found was three picture links that extolled “The Harper Government” for doing this and that. This was clearly partisan political promotion on a Government of Canada website. Taxpayers should not pay for, or be subjected to, this “information.”
...
The Parliamentary Secretary to Stephen Harper said during debate on Senator Mike Duffy’s expenses: “What’s also very clear to Canadians is the fact that you can’t use House of Commons resources for partisan political purposes.”

How much more corrupt is it that the current government uses more than $100 million of taxpayers money touting Canada’s Economic Action Plan, which is in reality Conservative Party advertising?

These acts are more appropriate to the president of the Republic of Burundi trying to hold on to power by any fraudulent means.
