It’s Done. FATCA has Royal Assent in Canada, is officially the law of Canada and we are now officially second class citizens in our own country.
Here is a cross-post from Brock: Implementation of the US FATCA IGA has been given Royal Assent by Canada’s Governor General, June 19, 2014.
FATCA was not even mentioned in Finance Canada’s statement. That is how insignificant the Cons and Finance think we are.
The media remains silent. As Calgary411 asks:
How is this possible in a country that calls itself a democracy?
Next Stop: The Courts. We need your donations to make that happen!
Stop PM/Premier Power Abuses
.
There is an elite club running Canada – the SuPremos. They are almost all powerful, unchecked by anyone, and restricted by few laws. Even the Constitution doesn’t stop them from abusing many of their powers. Most watchdogs can’t touch them, and their actions often strike fear in the hearts of Canadians.
Beyond disappointing. But not surprising. We have been betrayed by our own government. I have been so proud to be a Canadian for decades. Not so much lately.
