ABOUT TIME A New OPP Commissioner was announced.

 

Ex OPP police chief Julian Fantino  caught my attention when he clearly lied about the causes of car accidents in southern, he lied when he had said speeding is the main cause of car accidents in Ontario , he should have known better, distracted, drunk and impaired drivers, road ragers rather are the main cause of car accidents..  so next it came as no surprise to me when the Devil PM Stephen Harper himself asked Julian Fantino to become a Conservative federal MP candidate He should be right at home with the too may liars we have elected.. it seems we like to continue to elect Liars.   https://thenonconformer.wordpress.com/2008/10/01/let-us-all-stop-electing-liars-or-the-alcoholics/

 

 

People in leadership office do have to face higher penalties as an example now too. It is clearly established, accepted fact by most people that those in leadership civil and public servants cops, teachers, ministers, politicians included  are always to be exemplary in behavior,  conduct and they do need to maintain their high standards even out of their working hours, thus to do so they are also to be exemplary  judged, prosecuted  for their own wrong doings with a higher standard over those of us ordinary folks.

In case you did not know it OPP tends too often stand for an Oppressive Perverse Police concerned mostly with revenue generating speeding tickets, and not rather catching impaired, drunk drivers, the real criminals.

Deputy Commissioner (DC) Chris Lewis  to replace Julian Fantino as OPP commissioner  Outgoing OPP chief won’t be missed at all  Outgoing Ontario Provincial Police Commissioner Julian Fantino is keeping his options open for his next bad career move. Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty   appoints Fantino replacement as head of OPP . The new boss of the Ontario Provincial Police  is now Ontario’s top cop . The new  Commissioner of the Ontario Provincial Police, effective August 1, 2010,

Hypocritical Police and Conservatives want more policing over the Canadian citizens, the same persons who wrongfully firstly do not want to give us a detailed list, copy of all of their own expense accounts  and do note that too. Let the police rightfully start with the rightful better policing of themselves  and next deal  first with  our too often stealing, crooked, lying politicians, civil and public servants who also do steal  and now first also go after all the alcoholics who abuse their spouses, drive impaired … the cops included..  deal first with all all of  of   the persons who abuse any seniors.. and we now do need more cops rather in the hospitals arresting also all of  the bad Health Ministers, bad  doctors and bad nurses who fail to provide adequate medical aid to seniors, others etc

City hall managers, adminstrators, others guilty of tax evasion

 

THE FISH STINKS FROM THE HEAD.  It really is so  is hard to believe that when the ordinary citizen can easily see it now, perceive the facts, truth  that it was not a  deliberate act, a deliberate oversight too, in this modern age of competent managers, that  the  so called professionals now too,  the same managers who now are supposedly smart , intelligent to run the finances,  administration, public servants at the largest city in Canada, that they now were also so ignorant in that  they were committing major tax evasion for years too. Sounds more like a deliberate criminal act that is being carried on in other places, churches, police, other GOVERNMENTAL OFFICES included.. and what they will all get a slap on the wrist for it too? Notice the media spin on the crimes, story now too.. ALL JUST AS BAD AS THE QUEBEC POLITICS, GOVERNMENT.. Unacceptable pretentious justice too. EXCELLENCE WELCOMES SCRUTINY. 

 

Councillors to surrender tax-free TTC passes Globe and Mail – A tax-free TTC ride is over for city councillors. The Toronto Transit Commission has asked all 44 councillors and the mayor to immediately return their 2010 Metropasses to appease the Canada Revenue Agency, which concluded earlier this year that free transit trips and a slew of other perks count as taxable benefits. Councillors’ free passes to the Toronto Zoo, the Sony Centre and city-owned golf courses could soon be treated the same way. Excluded was the councillors’ free access to city-owned Green P lots. etc… 

 

Toronto councillors lose tax-free TTC passes CTV.ca Following a Canada Revenue Agency audit of the City of Toronto, the Toronto Transit Commission has asked all city councillors and the mayor to return their tax-free complimentary 2010 Metro passes.  The announcement comes after the CRA concluded earlier this year that free transit rides and other perks count as taxable benefits. Councillors choosing to keep the free Metropass will be required to pay taxes on the $1,188 benefit.

Councillors ordered to return free transit passes Toronto Star “It took 10 years but, at the end of the day, councillors will have to pay to get on the bus like everyone else,” Ford said.

 Just cause so many others still do it. cheat, lie, steal it all  does not make it right.

The Toronto Transit Commission is expected to have a record year for ridership,  dues also to 25 cent fare increase introduced at the beginning of the year, leading to an estimated $20 million surplus. So how do they use it to reduce the price of fares for the citizens? or they continue to give expensive, lavish perks, freebies to city hall managers?

 

Meanwhile the  top brass at the Toronto Transit Commission yesterday  confessed openly to the news reporter  what Transit riders already know: Its trains and buses are overcrowded and its subway stations are dirty and confusing. Their Spin doctors are promising changes here now. The Toronto Transit Commission will undo the service cuts it made to save cash in 2010 and spring for the cost of the 42 new station managers to improve customer service on subways. TTC will look at rehiring the 32 drivers it cut in March, and also cancelling a further cut of 32 drivers that had been planned for September. Transit fare savings? Dream on. or just more Empire building.  Which reminds me what about all of those managers still too that too often do take still home the office computer equipment, software and so  are they also not still guilty of thet, tax evasions too.

 

Why do most of the politicians fear all disclosures now?  Jesus himself had said that of she or he that cannot be trusted to handle the small money matters they now next cannot be trusted to handle the big ones too.   Spending scandals have now rocked governments in Canada and continually too. In February, Nova Scotia’s auditor general concluded inappropriate claims were made by some politicians for personal items, including almost $8,000 spent on a generator that was installed in a politician’s home. Reports by Newfoundland and Labrador’s auditor general led to criminal charges against a former legislature employee and four former politicians who received sentences ranging from 15 months to two years. How can any of the Ministers be trusted to supervise others, resources when they still really cannot be trusted and do need to be supervised themselves, held accountiable.

 

 

“”it is inconceivable that in a political era in which voters demand accountability, federal politicians can forever fend off the demand to reveal their expenses. “I think it’s a political minefield for them not to allow the auditor general in,” said Ken Dye, Canada’s auditor general from 1981 to 1991. “You wonder why they’re resisting. What are they trying to hide? I think that in a time of accountability I have no trouble at all having the country’s auditor general examine any bit of public money.” You’d think the same would hold true for a governing Conservative party that came to office in 2006 on a platform of transparency and accountability, or the three opposition parties who make daily denunciations about Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s penchant of secrecy. Instead, all are complicit in upholding the culture of hidden receipts in Ottawa, one of just a few tranches of taxpayer money that is shielded from public audit. There also needs to be serious discussion about the terms of the probe the auditor general wants to conduct, he said. Fraser recently explained to a Senate Finance committee that what she envisions is a performance audit, which examines whether taxpayers have received value for the money spent by politicians, rather than a narrow double-check of Parliament’s balance sheet. Why, in an era of wedge politics where parties stake out the moral high ground if only to better thump their opponents, no one wants to be the first to come clean with their expenses is another enduring mystery of this matter. When the Star conducted an investigation into how MPs were spending their office budgets last year, the vast majority were unwilling to disclose how they spend their share of taxpayers’ money. ” http://www.thestar.com/news/canada/article/803425–auditor-battling-ottawa-s-culture-of-hidden-receipts?bn=1  

 

Ha ha ha So they now still all cannot cannot be trusted now not to lie on their expense account so can we trust them all still now even anywhere else? Of course not! It is no wonder it takes such a long time to get something done in Ottawa! The way a politician conducts his parliamentary business is clearly still, political and “murky,” with a lot of the money likley used for the political parties expenses and not for the legitimate citizen, or governing business expenses.

 PERSONAL ACCOUNTABILITY. MANAGERS MUST manage is such a simple truth, so axiomatic that it is hard to believe that so many people who are called managers – or call themselves managers – completely miss it. 

Too many managers participate in the blame game. They blame the government, their peers and subordinates, the marketplace, competition and some take it to the real extreme and blame God. Avoiding responsibility for personal behaviour in business is probably the most fundamental weakness that a manager can possess.

The best managers I know are the ones who hold themselves accountable, take responsibility for their behaviour and actions and hold their colleagues equally accountable for their behaviour. This characteristic is often the seminal reason for managerial success. But it is hard to practise. When practised, however, it is the most liberating and energising force a manager can possess. http://businessuitemagazine.wordpress.com/2010/04/17/managers-must-manage/

A PICTURE IS WORTH 1,000 WORDS

SO HERE ARE SOME MORE PICTURES OF CANADA TODAY…  the betrayl of the citizens by our civil and public servants

The Harper party loved whistleblowers when in opposition. They even ran a high-profile one as a Conservative candidate. But when the whistle is blown against the Conservatives, no one actually contradicts the whistleblower’s sworn evidence, they just attack and spin.  http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/opinions/and-the-conservative-spin-machine-spins-on/article1372201/

On Thursday morning, to the apparent surprise of some observers, I argued on this blog that Canadians needed a public inquiry to get to the bottom of the allegations of torture and cover-up that Richard Colvin had made the day before in front of a parliamentary committee. After watching the Conservatives’ performance for the past two days, I’d say that Prime Minister Stephen Harper also needs a public inquiry–only more so.  Legitimate questions can be asked as to why Mr. Colvin did not blow the whistle earlier, which would have saved anywhere from 220 to 600 Afghans from allegedly being tortured. However, to attack his credibility, as Conservative ministers have been doing, is both pathetic and reprehensible. And to demand first-hand evidence, as they’ve also been doing, is precisely the same dodge that bureaucrats used to cover their asses in the Maher Arar affair. The Conservatives can’t allow light to be shed on the despicable lengths to which they have gone to hide previous coverups.  http://www.theglobeandmail.com/blogs/spector-vision/advice-for-the-pm/article1372686/   

Cons is a great description of what the Conservatives really are like and many can see that anyway

PS: OTTAWA – Gilles-Andre Gosselin, a key player in the federal sponsorship scandal,  related to fraud totaling $655,276.  was   sentenced by an Ottawa judge to two years, plus a day.  charged last December with 19 counts of fraud for offences allegedly committed between 1997 and 2000.  The scandal undermined the Liberal government of the time, and paved the way for a Conservative government promising accountability and openness.  Now it is the Stephen Harper’s Conservative Government turn to be arrested as well for their clear  failure to keep these related promises.  

 Flaherty says government will undertake no new spending in next year’s budget Fri Nov 20, 6:28 PM TORONTO – Emphasizing that government stimulus spending is a temporary measure, federal Finance Minister Jim Flaherty says the Conservative government doesn’t plan to undertake major new spending initiatives in next year’s budget.

THEY SPENT VAST AMOUNT OF MONEY WITH NOT MUCH GOOD RESULTS  TO SHOW FOR IT, NOW THEY SAY THEY WILL DO NOT MORE. MAYBE IT IS BETTER THAT WAY. WE ALL DO  HAVE TO PAY FOR THEIR LAST WASTAGES ALREADY TOO.

 

Both Liberal and Conservatives are facing unpopular issues

 

 Not just in Churches, amongst the police, politicians, civil and public servants, I have never seem so many lying, mental people in one place like I have amongst the medical workers I have dealt with this year in  in Hospitals, convalescent, old age homes who really do delude themselves too often about their self importance and the positive role they are functioning in.    When a   professional cannot see what they are doing now is simply  so wrong they themselves do now need real professional help too. The People who lie often, the  professionals now included, they   tend to have severe personal,  mental disorders next cause one tends to eventually believe next ones lies as being the truth, and they can no no longer differentiate their own lies from reality, the truth.  https://thenonconformer.wordpress.com/2010/06/14/professionals-what-a-joke/

TORONTO, Canada  – Successive scandals, a historic deficit and an unpopular new tax have now also taken a heavy toll on Ontario’s Liberal government, according to a poll McGuinty Liberals also are on downhill slide: poll . The Conservatives fail to realize that these same issues affect the federal Conservative Government now as well. The Conservatives in Alberta are also facing new increased discontent and opposition.  

Liberals in British Columbia are also facing new unexpected Citizen heat.

The  new poll puts Dalton McGuinty Ontario Liberals in a virtual tie with the Conservatives, led by Tim Hudak. Support for the Liberals is at 36.6 per cent, while the Tories garner 35 per cent support.   And the last poll, in May, had the Liberals at 47 per cent support, 16 points ahead of the Tories. Premier Dalton McGuinty’s leadership numbers in free fall, sliding to 26.9 per cent popularity from 42.1 per cent in May.  Undecided voters rose to 28.1 per cent from 20.4 over the same period.

Harper welcomes Canadians back to the half-trillion-dollar debt club created by deficits he promised would never happen.

Leaked report says gov’t overstating the need for new power lines in Alberta Thu Nov 19, 11:30 PM  EDMONTON – A political battle is reaching a peak in Alberta over whether the province needs billions of dollars worth of new power lines that will be paid for by consumers. Wildrose Alliance Leader Danielle Smith  says the conclusions in the EDC report strongly suggest that the Tory government is not doing enough to protect consumers.  There’ve been projections that it’s going to be $200 per year for the average residential bill for the next 15 years,” said Smith.Major power utilities will end up benefiting greatly from Bill 50, but consumers and landowners whose property will be affected by the new power corridors will end up as the big losers, said Smith. “My read of this debate so far is that the government is simply and blindly serving the interests of its corporate sponsors, not the interests of consumers,” she said.

A pretentious government is never enough no matter what the excuse.

A very sick Ontario EHealth scandal

 

  EHealth scandal a $1B waste:   

 We all do  pay high  taxes and also high prices for fuel, food, transportation. services, phones, internet, cable  but also do still receive poor health care and high costs education  and all of this is unacceptable.

   

 Opposition calls for Smitherman’s head. Ontario’s opposition parties called Wednesday for the resignation of Energy Minister George Smitherman, saying he must be held accountable for his role in the expense scandal at eHealth Ontario , report slammed the government for allowing eHealth to waste millions on unused computer systems and give out millions more in untendered contracts to consultants. Some of those contracts were doled out when Smitherman was health minister from 2003 to 2008. “The auditor general’s report makes it quite clear that many of the biggest abuses of taxpayers’ money occurred under the watch of minister George Smitherman,” Hudak told reporters. “And George Smitherman has escaped any sanction or any scrutiny by the premier for his role in this affair.”A scathing report into the eHealth Ontario spending scandal has claimed the job of the province’s health minister with its charges that successive governments wasted $1 billion in taxpayer money. Health Minister David Caplan is stepping down because of the report. Children and Youth Services Minister Deb Matthews would take over the health portfolio. The report is damning in its criticism of the way governments have allowed eHealth and its predecessor, Smart Systems for Health, to let spending go out of control with few safeguards to protect tax dollars. And favouritism was shown toward certain companies “without giving other firms a chance to compete were largely true.”

 

 

The Ontario people have been robbed by their elected representatives for Billions of dollars and that is just wrong. We need to see people serving jail terms for this and we want to see justice. McGuinty had better see this as we will soon be getting to the point of massive civil demonstrations where we will not only call for the removal of people but the laying of the charges under the criminal code. This has got to the point where the voters are being fleeced by the government appointed heads of boards and such , and when huge sums of money are wasted or improperly spent, there should be charges and not just inquiries. Just the money lost could have guaranteed the pensions of many people and the severance of even more. Instead we wasted this money on all sorts of unnecessary spending and expense accounts that these criminal boards were approving for their members. It is time to force the crown attorneys to do their jobs and charge all of those people and sort it all out in the courts and the sentences should be all the maximum allowed by law in the highest security prisons. Who’s going to repay the money? …. http://www.cbc.ca/canada/toronto/story/2009/10/07/mcguinty-ehealth.html 

 

McCarter’s probe, which went back to 2000, criticized unnamed consulting companies for driving up each other’s fees to artificially create a higher rate for their services and putting too much power in too few hands in awarding of contracts.

The auditor general also slammed unnamed senior health bureaucrats for thwarting his efforts to get investigators into eHealth for a routine audit in the summer of 2008, which didn’t happen until February 2009.

EHealth expenses

• Some of the consulting costs incurred at eHealth:
• $2,700-a-day consultant, charging $3.26 for a muffin and tea.
• $300-an-hour consultant, charging for reading an article on electronic health records given to her by her husband, another consultant.
• Two consultants serving as vice-presidents and flown regularly from homes in Alberta.
• $1,700-a-day executive assistant.
• Consultants charging to watch an eHealth episode on TVO’s The Agenda and “debriefing” on the Toronto subway.

I hope you’re happy Mr. McGuinty. You have permanently destroyed the Liberal Party in Ontario in a way that is reminiscent of what Bob Rae did to the NDP in Ontario. It will take YEARS for people to forget this. In one fell swoop, you have just handed the Progressive Conservative party the reigns in Ontario for years to come.  Well done, Mr. Premier. Well done. This is just disgusting… a Billion dollars recklessly wasted in this economy? When people are suffering more than ever? This is just sickening. if this was the real world the fraud squad would be called in.  fraud is fraud , prosecute it.

 http://www.cbc.ca/canada/toronto/story/2009/10/07/ehealth-auditor.html

 

 $1 billion spent but little to show in Ont.’s push for electronic health records  TORONTO – Ontario taxpayers have poured $1 billion into an electronic health-record system that’s years away from completion, a mismanaged effort the provincial auditor general said allowed consultants to run amok with little oversight while millions of dollars in untendered contracts went out the door.

  

Ont. gov’t ‘should have known’ about scandal at eHealth, McGuinty says  TORONTO – Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty says his government should have known about the eHealth debacle before the scandal surfaced.

Cancer Care Ontario broke rules: audit. An internal audit of Cancer Care Ontario shows the provincial agency handed out consultant contracts in some of the same questionable ways as eHealth. It gave a consulting firm $18.7 million in deals over two years, some in the form of so-called “follow-on” agreements, a practice that allowed them to be added on to current contracts without being opened to bids. The audit found the number of follow-ons “excessive” — with at least 26 recorded. “The findings of this audit clearly indicate that the procurement processes, file organization and consistency of documentation require substantial improvement,” the audit says. “It is also apparent that required competitive tendering rules have not been consistently applied for all contracts of significant value.”

Other revelations in the documents included:

• Details of some contracts were ironed out after the deal was done.
• Contracts without tender accounted for 49 per cent of examined contracts for non-capital goods and non-consulting expenses, such as computer equipment, software and equipment rental.
• About $1.6-million worth was paid out over 14 invoices to a company with no written contract.  
• Several employees recruited were offered between $17,000-23,000 over the maximum salary range.
• CCO employee files were kept in an unlocked cabinet accessible to unauthorized employees.
• Even though policy forbade paying for parties, Cancer Care paid for two staff picnics, a farewell function and gifts for staff, one holiday party and a baby shower.

I want my money back! Can’t trust the government to be good stewards over the funds they tax from hard working folks, Every dollar to fight cancer is badly needed. To waste a penny is criminal.   this was only the tip of the iceberg and that every department in this government needs to be audited.  It is only common sense, that the rot permeates this government in many departments.. look at filing criminal charges against those in office that are responsible if criminal activity took place. Their personal bank accounts should be frozen and an investigation into whether they have off shore accounts. We are talking billions of dollars here, with no proper accountability. The same should apply to the people who were, and or are, in charge of companies such as eHealth, and Cancer Care Ontario. This list is going to grow. This is more than disturbing. I’m absolutely blown away. A minister resigns? What about the premier? Today’s revelations involve hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars. I’d lose my job for mismanaging 5 grand.   http://www.cbc.ca/canada/toronto/story/2009/10/07/cancer-care-ontario.html

 

More than a third of Ontario hospitals didn’t balance their books, figures show The Canadian Press –  hospitals couldn’t balance their books last year, amounting to a $154-million shortfall, newly released figures show. Sixty-one of the province’s 159 public hospitals, or 38 per cent, were in deficit in the last year…  Ontario is behind every other province except British Columbia and Quebec when it comes to hospital funding, according to statistics collected by the Canadian Institute for Health Information. In 2008, Ontario’s funding of hospitals was $1,209 per person, lower than the national average of $1,290.

 It is always the same old problem, Professionals, civil and Public servants, Doctors and medical staff continual indifference to the need of others, Almost since my first job after graduating from university I had learned that people are not to be trusted, need to be supervised, and corruption still exists in construction, universities, municipalities, governments, corporations, amongst professionals and politicians as well. Hospital costs savings so the Doctors can get more money, even bad who Doctors fail to define the sicknesses soon enough. Law suits and the related bad publicity have been proven to be one of the most effective weapons in dealing with medical inadequacies.

NOW WHY IS IT BAD PEOPLE DO NOT CHANGE NEXT BESIDE THE FACT THEY LIKE TO DO BAD THINGS, IT IS ALSO CAUSE THEY FALSELY  REFUSE TO ADMIT THE THINGS THEY DO ARE BAD.

 

TORONTO — Ontario’s health bureaucracy is facing yet another scandal in the wake of more revelations of spending and procurement abuses. In a special report released Wednesday morning, Auditor-General Jim McCarter outlines numerous problems at hospitals and local health integration networks (LHINs), regional funding agencies created by the Liberal government. McCarter points to the questionable hiring of pricey consultants, many of which were sole-sourced and often not required to justify the work they did. The report details a litany of questionable consulting gigs at hospitals, including one, worth $700,000, that was so vague it didn’t even list a detailed description of services needed. Another hospital completely failed to account for a $170,000 consultant contract, and was unable to produce the initial request for proposal, the names and number of firms invited to bid, the bidders’ proposals or any evaluation criteria used to reward the contract. The same firm was retained for another, $430,000 contract. Another hospital paid $8.3 million to one consulting firm for IT services over the past three fiscal years, including $180,000 the firm charges for each consultant it provides. The auditor’s report also details questionable expense claims by hospital consultants. They include one temporary executive who, despite his $275,000 annual salary, also billed the hospital nearly $150,000 for other consultants and administrative support, $14,000 for salary bonuses, foreign exchange fees and a Christmas luncheon, and numerous expensive hotels (including one, in Chicago, where he paid $500 for hotel phone charges) and lavish meals around the world. McCarter also questioned the use of lobbyists by half the 16 hospitals he audited.   “We questioned the appropriateness of using government funds to pay lobbyists to help obtain more government funding.”Health minister Deb Matthews reacted swiftly to the report, announcing legislation that will ban the use of lobbyists and open hospitals to freedom of information legislation by January 1, 2012.  The auditor-general also found “significant” problems with consultant contracts signed by LHINs The revelations contained in Wednesday’s report are reminiscent of those unearthed last December, when Mr. McCarter detailed spending abuses at eHealth Ontario. That agency, created by the Liberal government, was found to have given millions in sole-sourced contracts to high-priced consultants with few controls and little oversight.“I’m not afraid to say that I’m really sorry this has gone on,” said Matthews. “I don’t think this is acceptable. I don’t think we’ve been as accountable as we ought to have been. We owe it to taxpayers to ensure that every dollar they spend on taxes gets the best possible value.” http://www.nationalpost.com/news/Ontario+Auditor+General+slams+hospital+lobbying/3701093/story.html

 

The same bad Liberals never learned to do things right and honestly the first time even.. allow their consultant sins to go on falsely.
