death and taxes

I filled out and sent the income tax forms to Ottawa in a red-colored envelope.

I don't think I made anywhere near enough money in 2006 to actually pay any tax. I may receive a tax refund because one of the companies I worked for deducted taxes -- even though I explicitly requested that they not deduct taxes.

What are Canadian tax dollars being invested in?

January 22, 2007 ACTION ALERT: How is the Harper government handling the war in Afghanistan?

• ESCALATING VIOLENCE
• INCREASING CANADIAN CASUALTIES
• THE RISING COST OF THE WAR
• AFGHANISTAN "SLIDING INTO CHAOS"

Canada's role in the invasion of Afghanistan ???

I won't pay taxes unless Canada invests in what is in the best interests of Canadians.
