The notice awarding a $2-million contract for forensic accounting services was published on the government’s tendering website, MERX. It gave notice that Consulting and Audit Canada was planning to award the sole-source contract to Leclerc Juricomptable, a Quebec City firm specializing in forensic work and litigation support. The contract award notice said the work had to be sole-sourced to Leclerc because it is “not in the public interest to jeopardize the current investment in the investigation or to significantly increase the risk to a successful completion of the investigation into possibly criminal matters.” A spokesman for the Department of Public Works and Government Services said yesterday that the notice was published “prematurely” and would be withdrawn last night. He could not say, however, what is under investigation, but said the contract was not tied to another scandal that has kept Quebec forensic accountants busy over the past years. “It’s not related to sponsorship or Gomery, that I can tell you,” said spokesman Pierre Teotonio (Ottawa Citizen, October 4, 2005).

196. Delays and ballooning costs mean a giant software project at National Defence will eclipse its original budget and won’t meet its goals until 2011 — if at all. An internal audit obtained by Canadian Press raises red flags about a new system designed to streamline computer tracking of military inventory and purchases. MASIS — or Materiel Acquisition Support Information System — started in 1997 as a $147-million undertaking. What began as a focused effort to cover a single equipment category in each of the navy, army and air force soon mushroomed. By 2003, Defence officials estimated MASIS would be in place by 2006 at a cost of $325 million, more than twice its forecast budget. A full introduction of the complex software has now been extended to 2011. The heavily censored May 2005 internal audit, released under the Access to Information Act, catalogues a litany of “revised planned milestones.” “The prime contract has been amended six times, each time increasing amounts for professional service fees,” it says.

Why don’t farmers in Ontario/Quebec have to use the wheat board?
242.Why are farmers in jail for giving small amounts of wheat to US 4h clubs when no one went to jail for the tainted blood which is killing thousands of Canadians?
243. The Liberals have striven to make parliament and democracy irrelevant in Canada.

We have to once again recognize the supremacy of parliament in a democracy if Trudeau’s constitution ever allows it.
244. Taxpaying Canadians pay 40,000 per year per native and yet we are told they are poor. How many in Canada wouldn’t mind 160,000 a year for a family of 4??? But everything is ok at Indian affairs.
245. The Prime Minister wields absolute power in Canada. He appoints the Senate, The Governor General, the Supreme Court. All of whom ‘in other democracies’ act as a check on the ruler and are not selected by them. It’s hard to imagine Tony Blair choosing who will be queen or Bill Clinton appointing the Senate, Supreme Court. In Canada our 4 year absolute ruler gets to do all that and more.
246. VIA rail gave money to the Liberal party even though it is specifically in their mandate that they will not do so. Why should taxpayers have to bankroll the Liberal Party. No sign of the Liberals paying it back.
247. Liberals / Conservatives consistently support excessive immigration levels even though most Canadians disagree. 67% of decided voters & 54% overall http://www.legermarketing.com/documents/spclm/020318eng.pdf Oh and most Canadians want immigrants from Europe contrast that with liberal policy. It’s one more case of Canada not being a real democracy.

258. Neither Ahmed Ressam nor any other terrorist was stopped in Canada. Other countries on the other hand have arrested lots of Canadian terrorists. Why can they find them and we can’t?
259. Employment Insurance, all workers have to pay but few can collect. What is the point of insurance that never pays out unless you have a parental leave?
260. Calling an election in 1997 when Manitoba was under the flood of the century. Two Manitoba towns flooded that certainly would have been different had Toronto or Quebec city been facing the floodwaters. Some cities are just more important than others.

262. “Those people out west they are a different type” J Chretien.
263. Winnipeg Convention Center paid for entirely with Manitoba tax dollars. Toronto Convention Center paid in part with Manitoba tax dollars. Lucky Toronto.
264. “What do I do with this.” Jean Chretien after stopping all the people from sandbagging around someone’s home for a photo op in Winnipeg during the flood. He didn’t know what to do with a sandbag. I can tell you what to do with it Jean.
265. Not allowing any one on the leadership campaign tour to ask questions about touchy topics like the GST. Any doing so were threatened with removal from the tour. The headlines would have lasted months had Stock done that but Jeans a Liberal so it’s ok.
266. “Multiculturalism” is Anti nationalism who voted in the referendum that brought that in?
267. The Federal government gives tax dollars to groups that fight hetrosexualism. IE The process by which we are all here.
268. Sumera Thobani proud to spit hatred at the US and says it’s ok because it’s true. Since when do Canada’s anti hatred Nazi’s allow the truth. If they did we could have discussions about whether or not immigration is good.

270. Liberals want me to spend 666 on a daycare program that I will never benefit from even though I have children at home. Unless high taxes force both of us to work.

273. You can export a billion-dollar trust and pay no taxes in Canada but if you earn $40,000 you’ll pay a higher marginal rate.
274. The Un says Columbia a third world country after years of revolution and disruption still has better health care than Canada.
275. The foreign affairs department gave a large grant to the Canadian AutoWorkers union. Is that for all the effort Buzz put into slamming Alexa?
276. We let foreigners in our overseas embassies decide who can immigrate to Canada. It must be racist for Canadians to control such things.
277. The Liberals gave Versatile an unsecured loan for twenty million dollars.
278. Liberals are giving Air Canada billions of dollars so it can start up a new airline to blow Westjet off the map.
279. Liberals are willing to do business with countries that still allow slavery. Yet they are also willing to pay all those African despots for slavery that happened before Canada was created some of whom allow it now?? I remember Sept 10 do you?
280. You have to pay taxes Natives don’t. In the name of equality,…
281. Good thing the darn white males didn’t help build this country People who are members of visible minorities get affirmative action, job quotas (who cares how many are qualified or apply) and the Charter forcing people to hire them.
282. You can pay twice your gross salary in support payments after a divorce. Kids automatically go to the mother unless the mother is basically a criminal. There is no onus on the mum to do anything other than milk support payments.
283. divorced dads are twice as likely to commit suicide our divorce friendly system is so great.
284. Canada can’t pass legislation designed to give someone using a firearm to commit a crime an extra ten years! That would cut down on the billable hours that the lawyers get. Instead we get a registry that isn’t working.
285. The federal government spent $656,650 on the Almanach du Peuple’s 2001 edition in exchange for 98 pages of ads, including a 46-page tribute to Pierre Trudeau.

(http://www.canoe.ca/TorontoNews/ts.ts-05-09-0010.html)
286. John Collison and Gerald Fast careers destroyed by the CRTC for having the nerve to say that the Winnipeg school division shouldn’t be teaching homosexuality to youngsters. Obviously the CRTC is happy with the population implosion in Canada.

288. HRDC spent more money in Shawinigan than in Manitoba, Saskatchewan & Alberta combined but the west deserves the tough love approach.
289. liberals want you to believe that the head of the finance department, the co-chair of the treasury board, the man who would not let you buy a party membership without his approval, the man who tried to put some one from Earnscliffe see 92/93 on the payroll of public works over their wishes, the man who got letters from provincial heads of the provincial LPoC that there was something afoot knew nothing about adscam.
