"Former bureaucrat faces fraud
charges Jan. 31, 2006. 01:00 AM OTTAWA—The Mounties have
charged a former Defence Department bureaucrat and two other men in a
multimillion-dollar fraud involving computer maintenance contracts. Paul
Champagne, who was fired after billing problems came to light more than two
years ago, is charged with fraud, obtaining more than $105 million from the
government under false pretences, money laundering and other counts. Peter
Mellon and Ignatius Manso were charged with fraud, obtaining money under false
pretences, possessing and transmitting the proceeds of crime and making false
statements. The police revealed few details, saying their investigation
continues. The RCMP was called in by the Defence Department in 2003 to
investigate irregularities in computer maintenance contracts with
Hewlett-Packard (Canada) Co. after internal audits found what appeared to be a
scheme involving phony invoices. HP Canada eventually repaid the federal
government about $146 million, saying there was no evidence its own employees
were involved in the scheme. The RCMP said then it was unfortunate that the
reputation of legitimate companies might have been hurt by the criminal
actions of others. In 2004, questions were asked about Champagne in the
House of Commons. "Why did someone, anyone, not get suspicious when DND
employee Paul Champagne was living in a mansion (in Ottawa) with a gym and an
indoor pool and tennis court on billionaire's row?" Jay Hill, a Conservative
MP from British Columbia, asked then defence minister David Pratt. "Did anyone
think to ask him how he could afford all that on a director's salary?" Reached
at the time by CTV News at his winter home in the Turks and Caicos Islands,
Champagne denied any wrongdoing and said his lifestyle was supported by
playing the stock market."
"Police lay charges in Salvation
Army fraud scheme. Police charged 25-year-old Ming Wa on Tuesday for
allegedly embezzling money from the Salvation Army, where he worked as a
senior property accountant. He was arrested this morning at 53 Division after
surrendering with his lawyer. Police charged Wa with fraud over $5,000
and falsification of books and documents. The Salvation Army has previously
alleged in court documents that it was defrauded of more than $2.3 million by
Wa."
Millions of the tax payer's dollars
are stolen, abused by the Liberal Party members.. and next millions of
dollars are abused by an accountant at the Toronto Ontario office of the
Salvation Army,... and note this unlike the federal government,
unlike Paul Martin too, the Salvation Army now does not wait
years to have the person arrested and put into jail.. for Public
exposure and prosecution of the guilty persons is what serves all of the
persons' good welfare.
Not one bad Liberal that abused the
taxpayers money in the federal sponsorship scandal now still has spent one day
in Jail and all really unacceptable.. now put them all into jail..
really. The undeniable and unacceptable sin
of Paul Martin and his Liberals is this.. (Jer 5:27 KJV) 27
As a cage is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit:
therefore they are become great, and waxen rich. 28 They are waxen fat,
they shine: yea, they overpass the deeds of the wicked: they judge not the
cause, the cause of the fatherless, yet they prosper; and the right of the
needy do they not judge. 29 Shall I not visit for these things? saith
the LORD: shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?
In his final report Justice John Gomery is
recommending an unbinding radical overhaul and decentralization of
federal decision-making in response to the sponsorship scandal. In his
final report, Gomery proposes new rules to limit government power and make it
more accountable and transparent. Specifically, the report calls for
curbs on the ability of the prime minister to manage special reserve funds of
the kind used to support sponsorship projects. It would also dilute the
prime minister's sole power to appoint deputy ministers - the top bureaucrats
in each government department. The role of the clerk of the privy
council, the prime minister's bureaucratic right-hand man, would be
drastically redefined. The duties of other deputy ministers would be
spelled out more clearly, - and they would be subject to greater parliamentary
oversight.
It does not take millions of dollars to know, find out
that if you put into place, hire bad, stupid, immoral managers and employees,
and do not adequately supervise the managers and subordinates you will
of course see major work degeneration.. and the simple solutions is always to
firstly fire all of the people who hired them and fire the bad employees, as
well as put them into jail.. Now in Ottawa too use the most effective
solution still just simply, economically fire them and put them into jail like
the rest of us do in the real world too.. In the real world, like the private
sector, when you do hire an employee and they still generally do go
through review periods, and if they are not what they have advertised
themselves to be you fire them, and you have this right .. The hired
person who cheats, lies, steal, behaves immorally also get fired for real now
too. Well we do now really need to have the same thing in the political world
too, for any political party members as well, Recall, you Recall them,
you Fire them when they are not performing ethically, or adequately as
originally promised. It is understandable these unethical perverts would not
like this, so what, fire them anyway for the good of the citizens.
The bad Liberals under Jean Chretien, Paul Martin were, are wrongfully
known for their lies, pretensions and lack of real enforcement of the laws..
unacceptable still.. Now in Ottawa too use
the most effective solution to any of the bad guys, gals in the civil and
public services, government, politics still just simply, economically fire
them and put them into jail like the rest of us do in the real world
too..
