(New computer mouse! Up and running again).
Back to yesterday's gripe.
All political parties -- except the Bloc in Quebec (Blanchet calls it 'unacceptable') -- are accessing wage subsidy programs that are intended for business during COVID.
All four parties have applied...Liberals, NDP, Conservatives and the Greens.
...to the tune of $600,000 a month.
The three largest parties
employ about 200 party workers,
which
means they are
collectively entitled to
some $700,000 per month
from the
federal treasury
to cover salaries.

As I posted yesterday, I find that absolutely disgusting.
And it's because taxpayer donations are down...way down...which is understandable during these circumstances.
How nice to vote for a government program and then access it without public overview.
Or consideration.
"Nero would be proud," Kia would've said.
Indeed.
