STAND OUT shared call 1 in 6 & . wAiTA/niA/wm:, /porvr Longley has spent several years communicating with Elections Canada, the Department of Finance, the De­ partment of Justice, and Revenue Canada trying to deter­ mine whether the loophole he found in Section 127 ofthe ON tir ; 6urrh^TAA£ Income Tax Act is legal. None of these departments, until last week, offered any hint ofthe Government's stand on &vsii>et/A/G, rn A/QJIA/G the legality of CCC, save alleging that it didn't "seem to conform to the spirit and object of the Act". Last week, Robert Beith, ofthe Department of Legis lative and Intergovernmental Affairs (a man with the longest title in politics), stated that were Longley to take CCC to a national level, and Revenue Canada were to CA/'ir../ FIT'S receive a "number of claims", his department would issue /n(OUrZJOfi/SC>/£776AL an order to regional taxation branches to challenge the loophole in court. This week Beith refused to say whether *mW Revenue Canada would or would not act on CCC. A^-^^Wp^alv Either CCC is legal, or it is not. It is particularly offensive to justice that the government should wait for Longley to broaden his program before challenging its legality. If CCC is indeed illegal, as government sources loosely suggest it is, Longley and his party should be told so. If CCC is legal, as it appears to be, Longley should be so informed. The likely reason behind this reluctance to issue a policy statement on CCC is rooted in cynicism about the Canadian public's intentions and priorities. If CCC allows individuals to make themselves beneficiaries of "political activity" by the Student Party, it is more than likely that the majority of Canadians would choose to do so, to the detriment of the government's revenues. • And why not. With the multitudes of red tape and regulations that make up our taxation system, half (or more) ofthe population of Canada has probably engaged in one illegality or another. The lovely system which gen erates the Government of Canada's revenues has the nasty side effect of criminalizing half of Canadian society. It is a system with which we play a cat-and-mouse game, hoping to elude the Feared Auditor. Itis no wonder then, when given the opportunity, that we utilize tax loopholes to benefit ourselves. Thatfs the name of the game. Get all you can. And when someone hke Blair Longley comes along and tries to infuse some democratic spirit into the tax system, he is chuckled at as though he were some kind of insane but harmless freak. Our tax system ought to be, as a matter of principle, far more democratic than it is. This is the direction in which Longley's CCC points.
