Jim Flaherty – Trust no more

There is a flyer being distributed by the Harper government claiming they have lowered income tax for seniors. Of course, no income no tax. Who are they fooling? Do they think that seniors will forget what was done to Income Trusts? That is an insult. By breaking their promise not to tax income trusts, Jim Flaherty caused havoc in the stock market. Canadian stocks on income trusts lost over $30 billion (yes "billion" with "b") and left many seniors deprived of their nest egg. Can seniors trust Harper, Flaherty and company again? I do not think seniors will forget that.

  1. It is only the rich seniors they will help. Does the" Harper Party" care about anything else.? I hope Flaherty loses this job..they have a fairly good man running for the Liberals
