A fucking thinktank probably paid by H&R Block, post ads to make you think it’s bad that CRA would file your taxes for free. Makes it sound like a conflict of interest where there is none.

Tired of big money influencing the masses. It should be illegal.

The Canadian Taxpayers Federation is a shadowy nonprofit that has regularly worked to: • suppress native rights and claims • fight against gun legislation • fight against gas and oil taxes.
• fight against public health care

Also they are part of the Atlas Network, a global chain of right wing conservative “think tanks” that include such fantastic groups like the far right Fraser Institute that pushes to abolish public education and the Cato Institute that is literally one of the lobbying arms of the Koch group.
