FED: Reveal MP Expenses
SIGN OUR PETITION -- and forward to your friends!
Our politicians in Ottawa just denied Auditor General Shelia Fraser the ability to audit $500 million in their annual MP and Senator office expenses.
Clearly, this is not acceptable. Every other penny of government spending is subject to audit; so should the expenses racked up by our MPs and senators.
While they claim they have "guidelines" in place to ensure the funds aren't misused, "guidelines" didn't stop politicians in Nova Scotia from expensing a video game or a UK politician from expensing the cleaning out of their moat!
We need your help to get these books opened!

petitioners
Can the CTF list on this site, the names of petitioners for every petition, which would also include a total number of petitioners?What would help, about that, is to know if a particular petition needs attention, to encourage people to make the choice of whether this is something they support. It also results in people standing publicly for that to which they agree.
