What's fair is fair

George Radwanski will be remembered as the Privacy Commissioner who outraged and saddened Auditor-General Sheila Fraser by his abuse of power, reign of terror, lavish unjustifiable expenses and cronyism.
 
 
  However the favours handed him by Revenue Canada has not generated as much publicity.
   
  A few days before he got his plush government appointment he was allowed to clear $557,000 in back taxes with a lump-sum payment of $62,726 - a bit more than 11¢ for every dollar that he owed.
   
  Next spring when income tax time roles around, I think we should all ask for a Radwanski. That is well pay 11% of the amount owing and promise to remit the rest when Radwanski pays his.
   

 

After all, whats fair for one is fair for all don't you think?
