-- OTTAWA -- The Harper government on Tuesday introduced legislation to scrap direct taxpayer subsidies for federal political parties. The move, to be implemented over three years, will eventually save nearly $30 million annually.You wanna financially support the political party of your choice... it should be a choice. Taxing me to further the agenda of the NDP... or the Bloc... is adding insult to injury.
The public subsidies were first introduced by the Chretien government in 2003.
