Go Granny, Go Granny, Go Granny. Go!!!
Raging Canadian Grannies protested FATCA in the cold and snow in Calgary. It sounds like the protest was about more than just FATCA, but this gets our message out there.
Calgary411 and Outraged were out there too, but they didn’t get this kind of attention!

Help Appreciated for Nov 13-14 Toronto Protest Against FATCA-Complicit Banks
The conference is the “Canadian Institute’s 19th Annual REGULATORY COMPLIANCE for Financial Institutions” at the North Building of the Metro Convention Centre in Toronto.
http://www.regulatorycomplianceforfis.com/
There will be about 150 conference attendees, including the big five banks and other financial institutions, who all want, not only to improve their skills in FATCA compliance, but to “EXCEED Regulatory Expectations.”
Final strategy to be determined, but protesters are needed to:
1) hand out to banksters a copy of a letter to the Canadian Banking Association asking banks to resist FATCA compliance and to lobby against FATCA; and
2) explain FATCA to the public and ask for their signatures on the Ted Hsu petition to Parliament.
Other suggestions appreciated.
Toronto Protest November 13-14 (Canadian Institute)
IRSCompliantForever is trying to organize a protest for Toronto Convention Centre November 13-14.
This one is not directed at the government. Rather, it is for the Canadian Institute’s 19th Annual Regulatory Compliance for Financial Instutions.
Included on the agenda is:
- Navigating the hurdles preventing you from achieving compliance with FATCA
What could that mean? It couldn’t mean finding ways to circumvent Canadian laws. Could it?
Can anyone join him?
