We live in a day and age where government budgets are disgusting, one government passes the next a bunch of debt and takes their checks to the bank while the taxpayers cover their salaries, their pensions, and the debt they left behind. Here in Nova Scotia we have some of the highest rates of taxation in the country because of this. There is no accountability. We have one very wasteful politician I'd like to call out! First you lose us something to the tune of $400k in the "concert scandal" which you were not entitled to do. You claimed ignorance which to me means one of two things - you thought you were above the law, or you got hustled like a clown. Then I open the paper the other day and see two articles in the same newspaper, one hidden in the back of the first section, the other on the first page. One was about how it was unlawful, and unconstitutional for this politician to order police to remove peaceful protestors without a court order. The other article was about how the removal of these protestors cost taxpayers over $100k in police OT. If I'm not mistaken that's a half million dollars you've now unlawfully wasted for the people you were elected to represent. Do you really feel so above the law? You really should start looking for a cushy job in the private sector because odds of you getting elected again for anything are pretty null, maybe you can just retire on the pension you receive from your years of DISSERVICE. —You're a Clown and Karma's the Real Bitch
