The CTF was SUMMONED to testify at the Heritage Committee on Parliament Hill in Ottawa.

The topic: The CBC!

The Canadian Taxpayers Federation told the committee full of politicians that it was time to DEFUND the CBC for three key reasons:

The CBC costs Canadians too much money.
Nearly nobody is watching it.
Journalists should not be paid by the government.

Most of the MPs were NOT happy to see us.

Not only does the carbon tax make almost everything more expensive, but you’re also getting soaked to pay for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s newly added carbon tax bureaucrats.

Trudeau’s carbon tax bureaucracy will cost taxpayers about $800 million by 2030. That’s just the cost of paying for all those bureaucrats to hammer you with the carbon tax.

In total, the cost of federal bureaucracy has increased by 73 per cent since 2016.

The CTF was in Parliament pushing back against the government delaying the next election to give dozens of extra politicians a pension they don’t deserve.

Delaying the election by one week would give up to 80 additional MPs a taxpayer-funded pension. Those pensions would cost taxpayers up to $120 million.

CTF Federal Director Franco Terrazzano was in a parliamentary committee pushing politicians to oppose delaying the next election to give millions in pensions to extra politicians.

The CBC doesn’t mind taking your money. It just doesn’t want you to know how it spends your money.

CBC’s CEO refuses to tell you if she will take a bonus or severance pay out when she leaves the state broadcaster in the new year. She thinks taking a taxpayer-funded bonus or severance is a “personal matter.”

But you pay their bills. You deserve to how much their bonuses cost you.

Plus, the number of federal government executives has increased by 42 per cent under Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
