市长候选人福特(Rob Ford)是最好的。
其他的都是一些花钱不干正事的家伙。。。
Ford has been the only member of council who has consistently brought the tax free status of councillors perks up for discussion at council and he brought it to the attention of Revenue Canada who looked into the issue.[15] On April 30,2010, Gary Webster, the TTC chief general manager said a Revenue Canada audit of the City of Toronto for 2006 and 2007 found they should have been paying taxes on their TTC pass freebie worth about $1,100 a year. Toronto city councillors have now been told to surrender their free Metropasses immediately or risk paying back taxes on them after the Canada Revenue Agency deemed them a taxable benefit. "Touchdown!” cheered Ford, who has been fighting for years to scrap councillors' perks. "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.[16] |
