Ontario dad loses tax deduction case
Don Butler , Canwest News Service
Published: Wednesday, July 23, 2008

OTTAWA - George Calogeracos has lost his fight to overturn a section
of the Income Tax Act he says discriminates against divorced dads like
him who share custody of their children and pay child support.

The 52-year-old Ottawa area cook and father of two went to tax court
last month, arguing the Canada Revenue Agency violated his charter
rights by denying his claim for the "equivalent to spouse" deduction
for one of his daughters on his 2006 tax return.

Dear Sir /
Madam

If it would be interesting for you to learn,

1) why the signals of Extraterrestrial Civilizations have not been
still detected ("the Great Silence of Cosmos") [A.2( see Article 2),
the commentaries - below ];

2) why the electromagnetic waves radiated by our brain and
carrying a definite information (e.g. telepathic) have not been still
detected [A.2];

3) why in the band (of frequencies) much less than 1 hertz one
can transmit information at a speed much more than 1 bit in a second
if one use a so-called "non-linear" ("inversely proportional")
frequency modulation of signals, and, thus, in the band of only one
working radio station one can easily place - all wireless stations of
the world! [A.2];

4) what kind of signals radiate living creatures which are not
detected with up-to-date physical devices, are protected excellently
from any noises, go through any obstacles, and are received reliably
in any point of the Earth [A.2];

11 Mar 2008 Taxpayer takes Taxman (and Woman) to Court :CRA SOTW

Happy 5th Anniversary to the weekly Canada Revenue Agency Story of the
Week!

Following is the tax tale that started it all (and a link to that
historic thread).

http://groups.google.ca/group/can.legal/msg/892d8a28a998e4?q=alan+baggett&start=140&hl...

I was told a slightly different version of this tale (link above) by
Gladstone Sue of the Toronto West TSO (Mississauga).

The theft of all of Canada's Social Insurance Numbers took place
(allegedly by one Andreas Hackner) in the early 1980's BC 'Before
Computer' at the Toronto Office before Toronto was subdivided into 4
offices. The culprit was a very close friend of Gladstone Sue
explaining why he knows these intimate details.

Mr. Kelly Bert Manning wrote that the employee was disgruntled which
is why he stole the fiche but that is not quite accurate.

Six Million in Taxpayer Money Wasted Pursuing Workers?: CCRA SOTW

Government claims low-income farm workers exaggerated hours to get
E.I.

Advocates for B.C. farm workers say the federal government has spent
millions of dollars trying to force the low-income labourers to return
employment insurance benefits paid out years ago.

Lawyer Sarah Khan of the B.C. Public Interest Advocacy Centre says the
case is a pointless waste of taxpayers' money.

"I'm embarrassed that this is how our government is treating these
people," said Sarah Khan, a lawyer with the B.C. Public Interest
Advocacy Centre (BCIAC), which represents 300 of the fruit and
vegetable pickers.

"I can think of a lot better things to do with taxpayers' money than
this."

The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) has gone after hundreds of B.C. farm
labourers, many of whom are elderly and illiterate, claiming they
exaggerated the hours they worked each summer so they could collect
employment insurance. Court records show that at one point the CRA had
spent $6 million pursuing one group of 120 workers.
