This has been going on for years now, I'm so ashamed. I have been audited numerous times by CRA, when I was in high school and college, making only about $15,000/year or less, just struggling to survive. The weirdest thing is, when I did file my taxes I would always end up owing money...... I went years upon years, always owing and paying back. It breaks my heart as an honest tax payer, who pays my part and always have, that I have been paying back for years, and the rich with millions get to pull scams like these and nothing happens to them...... it's because of scams like these why so many people quit their jobs and decide to live on social assistance - for some reason the government only goes after poor people, who cannot afford high powered lawyers, while the rich get to pull as many scams as they want, yet, they go unpunished. Canada is subsidized by the poor for the benefit of the rich. We the poor are the ones who pay the police to harass us- we the poor we pay for the roads, that the rich could speed on and not get ticketed.....We the poor are the back bone of the Canadian economy.

Defensive weapons, like the Police and Military controlled or "governed" by the Law, are always turned against those unable to defend themselves. If power exists it gets used, that's the lessons of History restated every day. "The easiest person to fool is yourself ", so either adopt the principle of self-management and defence, starting from scratch with your own responsibility, or expect to be fooled into thinking that a "Representative" can do it for you when there's no transparency about what actual representation means. I used to believe Democracy was like a generalization of trusting parents to protect us, but have only recently realised that, in principle, it's the net sum of all individuals, democratic or not.

A disclosure is extremely hard in this case. It's a universal accounting ethic where the accountant is suppose to keep complete confidentiality about their client, unless it's involved in money laundering, drug trafficking, treason, and terrorism. And there are far more complex consequences when asking the accountants to open their records for the clients. In short, if the Canadian court had required KPMG to do so, they could create a great havoc and none of listed companies (and the others) will want to open their books to auditors. As a result, the government will have to pay a much heftier bills when it comes to tax evasion or bail-out on corporate tax.

If Stephanie Henderson could not identify her signature was she saying she knew nothing about the Isle of Man deal and if Wayne Easter was appointed to enquire into it how was he forbidden to do so on any point of it implying that someone else other than the legislature's appointee was controlling his enquiry? In refusing to take questions on KPMG was MP Easter protecting it from justice since any evidence would surely see KPMG acquitted of wrongdoing unless it was guilty? Are the police prevented from inquiring into crimes committed by someone already charged and in court with different crimes and must not all citizens with evidence offer it to the police? Why would a government committee refuse to accept evidence against a company the parliament thought fit to inquire into unless it was set up to deceive the public or not to know the truth and if the, latter why not? Is it fair to assume that someone in government or even Mr Easter, is afraid of the truth and prioritizes that over protecting the public from financial malpractice and tax avoidance? What could KPMG possibly fear from questions concerning its accounting practices - the subject of the other court cases in question - unless they were not totally lawful and why would it not take the opportunity of displaying them in public to the inquiry and to the public and thus end its other costly litigation when everyone knew the truth - good for business - unless it wasn't the truth? What Mr Easter did showed that his legal advice has authority over the legislature and can prevent it inquiring into matters the parliament wants investigated. Is that not saying that the MPs do not have freedom of speech and can be financially penalised if they say something members of the public object to?

Others don't understand that of course and just avoid taxes because they are mean spirited and expect the rest of their countrymen to pick up the tab for them. But in reality ... taxes are an instrument governments use to control the economy, not a means of income from which they pay the bills, even though they sell it to the public that way.

The minute the current "general pool" anti-wealth model of taxation was implemented, stuff like this KPMG obscenity was born. If income taxes were confined to funding healthcare, education, transportation/roads, fire and law enforcement, and if the tax model used was the Singapore system, a larger proportion of "ordinary" Canadians would retain more of their income. And if, over the span of an average person's working life, all wage deductions for things like EI and CPP were deposited into an account bearing that person's SIN number (i.e. like a personal bank account), that person would have over $1M in retirement income. However, Tall Poppy Syndrome is deeply entrenched in Canadian culture and it is reflected in the tax regime. In addition to funding the necessary and legit. things like infrastructure and healthcare, the average working Joe also has to fund the state's futile attempts to finance every vicissitude of the human condition. And so, the very rich will continue to shunt their money offshore, and the ordinary taxpayer will continue to find his efforts at honest wealth accumulation to be stymied by the state's intentional design.

Imaging, just imaging, what the regular Joes and Janes, all over the world, think about making money out of money. This whole system is based on making money, no matter how, and that's the whole concept about it. Working real hard to achieve goals to make our society better and stronger is not the goal, making money is. Obviously, climate changes are not an issue when these criminals are all about MONEY. And that's why we are where we are today. Greetings from Toronto.

There is a duty of confidentiality to clients but this is very much overridden by various other duties for example, reporting to the tax authorities and making adequate disclosures in legal proceedings.

Another type of advice provided by KMPG is apparently re-registering companies in countries with lower tax rates, here in the UK Starbucks coffee, apparently pay no tax claiming that they pay their tax elsewhere in the world.

Anyone else seeing that multinational corporations get to play by a different set of rules than you and me? I'm f*cking pissed.

I guess it would be better to attack the Laws passed by the Parliament than the Accounting Companies which propagate the guidelines to the Public.

We all were born with nothing and we all re going to die with nothing to take with us.. Rich and poor we are going either six feet underground or in a crematorium,, rich can enjoy their fortunes now, while poor people will live in need. Once we are dead we be equal.. Therefore, we the people of this world will be equal.
