This page is in relation to the constant barrage of official propaganda that's produced and disseminated by the CRA in an attempt to keep everyone, from layman to professional, asking the wrong questions and believing they were actually born without the gift of inalienable human rights and fundamental freedoms.  
 
As you proceed you may want to keep in mind the fact that for someone to be able to creatively produce effective propaganda with the use of manipulative language, they must first be aware of the truth so not to inadvertently expose it. This reality, in and of itself, is evidence of the fact that those responsible for the production and dissemination of official propaganda, are doing so with full knowledge and intent to deceive the people of Canada.
 
Before getting into the serious side of this topic take a moment to watch what I assume is a CRA public relations commercial that never passed the Warm & Fuzzy Test.
 
 
 
CRA Media Room
 
The CRA Media Room is perhaps the best place to start looking for official propaganda, as it appears to be the most concentrated source of propaganda you'll find relating to income tax and GST.
 
 In addition to finding links to their News Releases, which are nothing more than reminders of how well the majority of society has accepted the concept of economic servitude, we can find a list of links to many other interesting topics such as a link to their now infamous "Myth Sheets", which we previously examined on page 4 of this site's online Advance course, as well as side bar links to Fact Sheets, Tax Tips, and a section entitled, Convictions.
 
Providing an in-depth analysis of every page and article available on this site being way too time consuming, I'll leave that task to you to do in your spare time and simply focus on a few of the more obvious pieces of propaganda designed to perpetuate the Illusion.
 
CRA Brochures
 
The first piece we can look at is the CRA's Brochure, RC4406.
                                        
                                               Will You Do It For Cash
 
Below is a copy of the first of 4 panels. However, for fun I encourage you to read the whole thing with a bit of deductive reasoning and critical thinking, as you're sure to see the same assertive use of unqualified language designed to keep those still lost in the Illusion pacified that their master is on top of dealing with the growing resurgence of natural commerce.
 
I hope you remember what natural commerce is. It's the way we exchanged our goods and services before our collective trust in our elected government was used against us by a few to economically enslave us under the colour of law to allow the international banking cartel to financially rape us and this country's natural resources.
 
Interesting unqualified question isn't it? Well let's look at what they have to say if your answer is an unqualified yes.
Apparently, according to this official looking piece of propaganda, cash payments are subject to GST/HST and you have to report them on your annual income tax returns. In addition, any failure to do so is tax evasion, which has serious consequences.

Hmm, interesting assertion...I wonder if they mean ALL cash payments made by everyone acting in any capacity or just the few types of cash payments that are made by or to someone acting in a capacity that would subject them to obligations under Income Tax Act and Part IX of the Excise Tax Act (GST)?

I sure hope the latter is the case, otherwise I'm sure at some time in our lives everyone of us, including our children, have committed the apparently heinous crime of exchanging our private property for cash, and are now guilty of tax evasion.

Let's get real people, we all can't be so dumbed down that we actually believe what is expressed on the face of this brochure as the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Call me naive, but I would like to think that even the most willfully blind soul-selling agent of the CRA has to be able to see through this blatantly obvious piece of propaganda.

 
 
Nevertheless, it's obvious by looking at the rest of the brochure why the Public Relations division of the CRA thinks it's a great piece of work.
 
The first part of Panel 2 was used to display a fear based point form warning of what is expected from their "taxpayer's" "legal representative" and the price they'll pay if they refuse or neglect to blindly obey as the good sheep they were trained to be.
 
The balance of Panel 2 and the whole of Panel 3 was used for a bit of sweet sounding reassurances to keep the sheep feeling warm and fuzzy as they're getting sheared. However, it's important to remember that even though the master has personally acknowledged that "Taxes can be complicated"  and has provided a reassuring list of services being offered to clear up any uncertainties, please don't expect to use these services in search of a clear and unequivocal answer.
 
After all, how profitable would it be if the master were to set up a service that was actually authorized to be honest with sheep, and obligated to tell them they're not really sheep but human beings with the inalienable rights and freedoms who have a common law right to structure their affairs so they fall outside the scope of the taxing acts.
 
Panel 4 is obviously reserved for a bit of bragging of how well they've been able to shear the sheep who tried hiding in the bushes or who started thinking for themselves, as well as a place to remind the rest of the sheep of their recently developed Sheep Help Shear Sheep System, which is officially named the Contract Payment Reporting System due to the tongue twisting characteristics of the more appropriate title.
 
What is the Contract Payment Reporting System, you ask? Not to worry, along with its T5018 form, we'll discuss this reporting system a bit more in-depth later, but first let's finish reviewing Panel 4 of this brochure.
 
In all fairness, from a PR perspective you really can't blame them for using Panel 4 for a bit of bragging. After all, if you can show the rest of the sheep a brutally sheared carcass or two they'll be much more inclined to voluntarily come forward for a much more gentler fleecing.
 
Panel 4 closes off with perhaps the biggest piece of propaganda in this whole brochure, with the line, "We would be happy to answer any question you may have." Give me a break! If you think this is true, try contacting one of the master's many minions and ask them the following question...
 
.
Is a natural person, as defined in the Canadian Law Dictionary, 4th Ed., by John A. Yogis, Q.C., acting in their own capacity for their own benefit, directly included within the definition of the word "person" as defined in subsection 248(1) of the Income Tax Act?
.
 
Short of some kind of miracle where you get a clear and unequivocal yes or no answer, the following section called Predictable Propaganda will show you what you'll most likely get as a response, especially if you send them a letter asking this question in writing.
 
 
T5018 - Contract Payment Reporting System
 
This brings us to point where we can start exposing the reality behind the T5018 form and the Contract Payment Reporting System. In short, the Contract Payment Reporting System is a fairly new tracking system developed a few years ago by CRA in an attempt to clamp down on non-compliance within the construction industry. If you're not in the construction industry this section may not be of much interest. However, if you are, learning how to see through this piece of official propaganda is nothing short of an imperative.
 
Unlike many industries, the construction industry is transitory. This type of industry is ideal for natural commerce to flourish. In general, it's made up of a multitude of different specialized trades men and women who come together for short periods of time to do their part of the whole project. Once a project is completed the contractors disperse and may never work together on the same jobsite for months or even years, leaving little, if any, consistent paper trail.
 
The only quasi-stable constant in this industry is the general contractor, who I'm sure has more important things to do than act as an unpaid tracking agent for the government. But under the threat of a penalty for each failure of $25 a day, with a minimum penalty of $100 up to a maximum of $2,500, some will make an attempt to comply with this reporting system by filling out a T-5018 slip for every one they contracted with. Again, like any of the CRA's systems of plunder they only seem mandatory, and will only work as long as a collective ignorance is maintained.
 
What is a T-5018 you ask? The T-5018 is the tracking slip, known as a Statement of Contract Payments. A general contractor who makes payments to subcontractors for construction services is required to complete a Statement of Contract Payments and a Summary of Contract Payments (T5018 Summary). However, as with most things in the Illusion this requirement seems broad and all encompassing.
 
When we analyze the definitions of the words used to create these so called mandatory requirements we will see the limitations of its true meaning. Once again we'll see that a natural person's rights are not infringed upon, they just look like they are. This following excerpt is from the CRA's General Information section of the T-5018 Summary. The whole form is available from CRA's website.
 
 
General Information Section of the T-5018 Summary
.
A subcontractor is an individual, partnership, trust, or corporation (as defined by the Income Tax Act) that provides construction services to a business. Subcontractors include individuals or businesses that are goods and services tax / harmonized sales tax (GST/HST) registrants, and non-GST/HST registrants that are below the $30,000 limit for GST/HST registration purposes. You do not need to report payments to subcontractors for services such as bookkeeping, janitorial, or legal.
.
                                                                                     (Italics Mine)
 
 
Did you see through the Illusion? If not, let's take it a bit slower. As you know, or can easily find out by looking up the definition of "individual" and "commercial activity" in subsection 123(1) of Part IX of the Excise tax Act, a natural person carrying on a business without reasonable expectation for profit, regardless if he/she makes more than $30,000 or not, is not even required to register for GST. Because of this verifiable fact, they do not fall under the category of a "registrant", or "non-GST/HST registrants that are below the $30,000 limit for GST/HST registration purposes".
 
Therefore, with a bit of deductive reasoning a general contractor can see through the propaganda of the official story and finally release any fear of penalties as they become more confident that they are not legally required to issue a T-5018 to CRA containing the private information of a natural person. This is just another example of official propaganda we all need to share with others so they too can release themselves from the Illusion.
 
 
The GST Trap
 
The next piece of propaganda we need to look at is in relation to what we call, The GST Trap. This trap is sprung by using the mail to deliver a knowingly fabricated letter which effectively thanks you for applying for a GST Business Number, despite the fact you never made such an application. 
 
 

Typical Thank You For Applying Letter

 
 
Note the date of this letter, January, 2003. Well this is only one of many we've compiled over the years dating back many years before 2003 to recent times.
 
The one thing in common most of the recipients of these fraudulent documents have is they never even made an application. In fact, many of them were carrying on a business in their capacity as a natural person without a reasonable expectation of profit and weren't legally required to register for the GST.
 
With that being the case, the only reason the CRA's intentional mail fraud scheme even works at all is that many of these natural persons have no knowledge of the legislative restriction of the meaning of "commercial activity".
 
What's the cause of this lack of knowledge? It's simple, unwarranted blind trust in our government. As the propaganda machine fires up to spew out sound bites in relation to the GST, efforts are taken to intentionally avoid making any mention of this legislative restriction within the official story.
 
Basically the official story is, if you make or provide a "taxable supply" in the course of a "commercial activity" you must register for GST, unless you are a "small supplier" because your business income is below the $30,000 limit.       
 
Considering the lack of any mention of the legislative restriction of the meaning of "commercial activity", the official story is obviously just another fine piece of propaganda. After all, if a person has never looked up the definitions of the words, "taxable supply", "commercial activity" or "small supplier" they're bound to rely on the common meaning of these words in their understanding of the official story. 
 
So how does the CRA get away with creating fraudulent documents and the use of the mail to perpetuate their fraud? After all, if you or I were to do such a thing we'd end up behind bars for creating fraudulent documents, mail fraud, and what ever else they could charge us with.
 
Based on our experience, the answer appears to be clear. With the use of fear, threats, and intimidation the powers to be have conditioned those with statutory titles of "professionalism" to become so reliant and emotionally attached to their false identity they're too afraid to step out of the status quo of their profession and challenge the actions of the CRA, even in the face of empirical evidence of a crime.
 
 I know this answer may sound like an unfounded opinion teetering on the edge of being judgmental. However, it's not, its based on reality and therefore it's actually a discerned observation based on factual events.
 
A while ago an individual contacted one of the top law firms in the lower mainland. After presenting the empirical evidence of the CRA's fraudulent document, as well as proof the CRA used the mail to deliver it, to the firms top GST lawyer who specialized in GST since its inception, the reality behind the idea of justice for all became apparent. Instead of the lawyer inquiring further into the merit of the allegations, he merely resigned himself to the emerging police state with words to the effect, "Well it's the government, they can do whatever they want."
 
Sad but true, so now any faith we had in the idea that lawyers were independent seekers of truth and justice is all but gone, as it appears that despite the level of expertise and competence a professional may have, some of them have become nothing more than passive puppets of the Illusion, for fear of being subjected to the same abusive tactics of the CRA and possible selective persecution from their own professional association for questioning the master.
 
 
CRA Convictions
 
This section is where the CRA proudly displays their trophies of victory over those who didn't know who they were, and those who knew who they were but thought the knowledge of this fact alone was sufficient to defend themselves against the inexhaustible resources of the Illusion's financial control division.
 
As you surf around their online trophy room however, you can't help but notice the strange absence of any mention of those who "got away", so to speak. Perhaps this is because publicizing information such as this would undermine the effect their propaganda is designed to achieve. After all, the last thing you would want any of your "voluntary" slaves to learn is the fact that income tax is no longer as certain as death.
 
Nevertheless, with a bit of guidance anyone can sift through the list of convictions and find the ones that are used to try to discredit the information of the predominant existence of inalienable human rights and fundamental freedoms presented by Paradigm.
 
There's no doubt this is done in an attempt to convince the masses that the CRA has the constitutional jurisdiction and legislative authority to levy an income tax on the private property of a natural person who is receiving amounts while acting in their own capacity for their own benefit, or more precisely put, a natural person who is acting in any capacity, natural or otherwise, other than the capacity of "legal representative" of a federally created artificial person known, and defined within subsection 248(1) of the Income Tax Act, as a "taxpayer".
 
Virtually every conviction relating to failing to file or failing to comply to a demand letter can be eliminated, as anyone who has spend some time studying the information presented by Paradigm has no challenge with filing, if and when required to do so, or even complying with a demand for information letter from the CRA.
 
After all, once an individual comes to realize the definition of the word "person" in subsection 248(1) of the Income Tax Act could not possibly directly include a natural person acting in their own capacity for their own benefit without violating predominant legislation such as the Canadian Bill of Rights and the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, as well as numerous principles of fundamental law, filing a return for the amounts received to the extent they acted in the capacity of "legal representative of a "taxpayer", or complying with a demand for information about the activities they performed in this capacity for the "taxpayer", is a legal obligation they're willing to perform. And why not, especially if no amounts were received and no activities were performed to the extent they acted in the capacity of "legal representative" of a "taxpayer".
 
Here is one example of a conviction which appears to support the CRA's implied mantra, "You Blink, You Breathe, You Pay". Give it a read through first and then we'll discuss the reality behind this piece of propaganda when you're finished.
 
 

           Esquimalt flooring installer pleads guilty to tax evasion

Victoria, British Columbia, June 4, 2007…. Esquimalt resident, Ryan McGinn, pleaded guilty today in Provincial Court in Victoria to tax evasion. He was fined $12,400, sentenced to eight months probation and ordered to complete 15 hours of community service.

McGinn had been filing returns that reported “nil” income since 1990. By contacting third party flooring contractors that McGinn provided services to, Canada Revenue Agency's (CRA) Enforcement Division was able to obtain invoices and cancelled cheques. These showed McGinn did not report income of $91,879 for 2003 and 2004 tax years. This income resulted in $11,773 of tax that McGinn tried to evade.

In addition, McGinn did not collect and remit Goods and Services Tax of $4,745 in 2004.

It was also determined that McGinn had contact with a group known as “Paradigm”, which teaches Canadians that as “natural persons” their income is not subject to taxation and they do not have an obligation to report it to the CRA. Canada's courts have rejected this argument. “Tax evasion costs all of us,” said Karen Etches, Assistant Director of Enforcement. “The job of our investigators and auditors is to make sure that all Canadians pay the tax they owe.”

When individuals or corporations are convicted of tax evasion, they have to pay the full amount of tax owing, plus interest, and any penalties the CRA assesses. In addition, the court may, on summary conviction, fine them up to 200% of the tax evaded and sentence them to a two-year jail term. Under the Income Tax Act, the CRA may also assess a penalty of up to 50% of the tax evaded or the benefit improperly claimed.

The information in this news release was obtained from the court records.

Further information on convictions can also be found in the Media room on the CRA website at www.cra.gc.ca/convictions.

 

 
 
Looks like CRA's implied mantra, "You Blink, You Breathe, You Pay" is true, doesn't it?  Well it should, considering propaganda is an art form and the PR division of the CRA has been perfecting their skills for years, anything less would be unacceptable.
 
If fact, you should be left with the impression that the CRA has the constitutional jurisdiction and legislative authority to levy an income tax on the private property of a natural person, despite the Income Tax Act's lack of a notwithstanding clause as required by section 2 of the Canadian Bill of Rights and subsection 33(1) of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
 
Now let's back up the train a bit and look at exactly what was written and more importantly what wasn't written. But first let me qualify my understanding of what I know of this matter. Not being in a position to hear the story first hand from McGinn himself, I'll do my best to reiterate what was shared with me by someone who was.
 
First you'll notice that it mentions McGinn pleaded guilty in Provincial Court in Victoria to tax evasion and he was fined $12,400, sentenced to eight months probation and ordered to complete 15 hours of community service.
 
However, what it doesn't mention is the fact that no trial was conducted and this conviction was the result of a plea bargain, perhaps due to the fact that in all practicality McGinn was in no position, financial or otherwise, to go up against the inexhaustible resources and legal expertise of the CRA.
 
Second, I'm sure you noticed their mentioning of a $12,400 fine, eight months probation, and 15 hours of community service. However, what they didn't mention was that in addition to these being the negotiated terms of the plea bargain, McGinn, much to the amazement of his lawyer, negotiated away the inclusion of any penalties being attached to the alleged taxation amount. 
 
The next thing that warrants our attention is the date in the sentence where they mention, "McGinn had been filing returns that reported “nil” income since 1990". This appears to a similar approach taken by Turnnir, as we already discussed on the Natural Person Case Law page, where he attempted to back date his knowledge. Considering Paradigm's first ever seminar was in spring of 2002, having returns filed for as far back as 1990 raises the extreme probability that for many of the years he filed he had absolutely no idea how to restructure his affairs properly to fall outside the scope of the taxing act, or even the fact that it was his common law right to do so.  
 
In any event, whether he had his affairs structured properly or not for the fourteen or so years it appears he filed for, negotiating a plea bargain that only attached to two years of tracked earnings not only says a lot about his skill as a negotiator, but says a lot about the lack of veracity of CRA's implied mantra "You Blink, You Breathe, You Pay".    
 
Another lesser point we can take note of is the fact that apparently McGinn reported “nil” income on the returns he did file. Now any one who has continued their study of the information that has been presented through Paradigm over the years, be it on their own or in a study group, would have known that section 3 paragraph (f) of the Income Tax Act makes it very clear that in a case where the "taxpayer" has no income for the year from an "office", "employment", "business" or "property", the "taxpayer" shall be deemed to have income for the year in an amount equal to zero, not nil.
 
 Moving on... the fourth paragraph is a great example of how well the propaganda skills of the CRA's PR division have been perfected.  The first part contains an unqualified sentence which states, "It was also determined that McGinn had contact with a group known as “Paradigm”, which teaches Canadians that as “natural persons” their income is not subject to taxation and they do not have an obligation to report it to the CRA."
 
So what does this mean? Are we supposed to conclude that just because McGinn had "contact with Paradigm", the information presented through Paradigm is fundamentally flawed and the CRA does in fact, and in law, have the constitutional jurisdiction and legislative authority to levy an income tax on the private property of a natural person, despite the Income Tax Act's lack of a notwithstanding clause as required by section 2 of the Canadian Bill of Rights and subsection 33(1) of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms?
 
Of course, that's what they would like us to conclude, but notice how they themselves won't make such a bold declaration. They merely include an unqualified and irrelevant statement containing a creative use of quotation makes around the word "natural person" leaving the impression they have no idea what one is, and hope we all will make all the false connections they want us to make, thus becoming your own worst enemy and leaving them with clean hands as we enslave ourselves with our own ignorance.
 
The second part of the fourth paragraph, where it states, “Tax evasion costs all of us,” said Karen Etches, Assistant Director of Enforcement. “The job of our investigators and auditors is to make sure that all Canadians pay the tax they owe.”, as well as the fifth paragraph which provides the predictable dose of fear, is even further evidence of their ability to create propaganda out of thin air. By having this statement follow right after the unqualified statement referring to McGinn's contact with Paradigm, it's rather obvious they're hoping we'll make the false connection between the information being presented through Paradigm and tax evasion.
 
They're good, I'll give them that. Too bad they're public servants and their duty is to "serve the public" and not "serve up the public to the international bankers". Nevertheless, as these pieces of intentionally deceptive propaganda continue to pile up and become easier to identify by the general populace, those government agents who are planning on a nice retirement with a lucrative pension may want to consider modifying their plans to suit more confined quarters. 
 
As you surf around the CRA's Media Room looking for other pieces of propaganda, it should become easier to isolate the ones that are designed to promote the CRA's implied mantra, "You Blink, You Breathe, You Pay" as the truth.
 
In fact, simply by searching for a case that makes a reference to Paradigm will narrow your search dramatically, as dealing heads up in an open and honest manner with the information presented through Paradigm is too much for them to handle for fear of exposing the validity of the information presented through Paradigm.
 
As we've seen in the release of the McGinn conviction ,they would rather resort to using a typical propaganda technique of diversion to try to get you to ignore the validity of the information, and focus their propaganda with defamatory remarks towards Paradigm. In other words, if they can't attack the message, they'll attack the messengers.
 
In closing of this section, I'll try to leave you with a bit of information that may assist you  in analyzing any future conviction releases to see if they are worthy of consideration or nothing more than additional pieces of propaganda. The following is a list of a few essential elements you can first check to see if they were present, and second, check to see if they have been addressed appropriately, both by the CRA and the courts.
 
 
A Few Essential Elements
.
1
.
Has the one simple question presented herein been raised and presented as a point in issue in the case?
.
 
2
 
.
Has the CRA fulfilled its obligation of proving beyond a reasonable doubt that a natural person is directly included in the definition of "person" by presenting a parallel to Paradigm's wholistic analysis of the use of the word "person" as defined in subsection 248(1) of the Income Tax Act?
.
3
.
Has the court, in relation to the CRA's parallel wholistic analysis, properly applied the principles of interpretation in respect of the principles of fundamental law as recently expressed by the Supreme Court of Canada in R. vs. McIntosh, 1995?

Predictable Propaganda

 
After years of individuals from all across this country seeking clear and unequivocal answers to simple yet qualified questions, we've been able to isolate another predictable pattern of evasive behaviour on part of the CRA and it's agents. Apparently, it doesn't seem to matter who you are or exactly how you phrase your questions, the response you'll get is now fairly predictable.
 
Fortunately however, as the years of others asking the same or similar simple questions passed, we have been able to compile virtually every one of the CRA's diversionary propaganda laden template paragraphs they use in different combinations to send back as a lame excuse for a clear and unequivocal answer to a few simple questions. The following are a few of the more commonly used paragraphs.
 
These first couple of paragraphs are taken directly from a letter received by a business owner who was making an inquiry regarding the constitutional jurisdiction and legislative authority of the federal government to attach statutory conditions to a private employment contract of a natural person acting in their own capacity for their own benefit.
 
 
 
 
After an initial read it could appear that the business owners inquiries were specifically addressed. However, when you reread these paragraphs and insert the appropriate definitions of certain words from subsection 248(1) of the Income Tax Act it's clear to see that not only were the business owner's specific and qualified inquires totally ignored, but what was provided could easily be classified as intentional deceptive propaganda.
 
For example, if the sentence which states, "Under this provision, employers are required to withhold tax at source when salary, wages and certain other types of compensatory payments are made to an employee." is rewritten with the Income Tax Act's meaning of these bolded words in mind, this sentence could actually read as follows;
 
 "Under this provision, "persons" from whom an officer receives an officer's remuneration are required to withhold tax at source when payments of income of a "taxpayer" from an "office" or "employment" as computed under subdivision a of Division B of Part I, and includes all fees received for services not rendered in the course of the "taxpayer's" "business", are made to an officer."
 
Now ask yourself, does this second more technically accurate sentence express what you thought the first sentence meant? Of course not, perhaps this is why they like having the ability to manipulate the meaning of common words in statutes. They now can easily deceive you by saying one thing and meaning another.
 
So with a bit better understanding of the answer that was sent in response to a question regarding the constitutional jurisdiction and legislative authority of the federal government to attach statutory conditions to a private employment contract of a natural person acting in their own capacity for their own benefit, I trust it's clear to see the question wasn't answered.
 
The next collection of paragraphs are directly from the same response sent to the business owner, however these are the more common template paragraphs you'll see appearing in many different types of responses, especially those sent by natural person's asking the one simple question we've been asking for years now.
 
The first one we'll look at makes the claim that the individual asking the question has received misleading information.
 
 
 
 
Now ask yourself, if your inquiry makes no mention of income tax being unconstitutional and never in any way, shape, or form challenges the federal government's legal authority to collect taxes, what would be the reason for his claim that you must have received misleading information?
 
After all, you simply asked one simple question, without any attached opinions or conclusions that could possibly warrant such a response that you received misleading information. 
 
Nevertheless, even if you were to provide more details surrounding the information you received, and in response they claim that you received misleading information, than it would stand to reason that for their statement to be anything more than a nice sounding propaganda sound bite they should be ready, willing, and able to provide you the implicitly available "accurate information" they must be relying in support of their claim.
 
Again, don't hold your breath and good luck trying to get any more out of them than these few common template paragraphs. In fact, these are used so frequently that it's beginning to appear that regardless of what actual question you ask, if the language used carries any tone other than complete and utter submission, a combination of these template paragraphs are all you'll get.
 
This second paragraph is an interesting one when you look at what it doesn't say and consider it against the impression most have of the CRA being above the law.
 
 
 
 
Here we are in a society where most live in fear of the CRA and yet this supposedly all powerful agency openly admits it does not control or censor what Canadians discuss about income tax matters. Well perhaps this is a clue, and even though the CRA admits it does not control or censor, the truth of the matter is the CRA can not control or censor what Canadians say because they aren't as powerful as they would like everyone to believe, and the people have rights and freedoms that even the biggest illusion can't destroy.
 
Another interesting thing to note in this second paragraph is the careful use of certain words in the second sentence, which states, "Although individuals are entitled to their opinions, taxpayers are, nonetheless, responsible to their obligation under legislation..." 
 
Finally, I knew it was only a matter of time and they would eventually acknowledge the rights of the individual, and the "taxpayer's" lack thereof.
 
These last two paragraphs generally show up together so we might as well read them as such. Now despite the obvious purpose for including a few fear based propaganda paragraphs in a response in hopes of leaving the reader thinking of the horrible things the CRA could do to them, instead of the fact their question was never answered, they are in a sense technically correct.
 
In fact, I think it's fair to say that these paragraphs merely represent a collection of isolated individuals who never learnt who they are or the rights they have, and their collective fates are now being used to add support to a couple of fear based paragraphs in an attempt to create an all encompassing reality.
 
 
 
 
However, these paragraphs in no way express the whole reality behind what happens, or should I say doesn't happen, to the thousands upon thousands of individuals out there who have spent the time to learn who they are and the rights they have in relation to this legal system, as well as the time to understand the limited constitutional jurisdiction and legislative authority expressed within the pages of the Income Tax Act.
 
The last template paragraph we'll look at that is commonly used in an attempt to divert your attention away from the fact that they never answered your one simple question, actually carries a subtle tone of bribery, or in other words, is a reminder of the proverbial carrot on a stick.
 
 
 
 
These excerpts were a few of the typical template paragraphs that have been repeatedly sent, albeit in different combinations and quantities, to everyone who wrote a letter asking simple, yet fundamental questions. So if you attempt to seek a clear and unequivocal answer to any question that may affect their bottom line, don't be shocked if all you get in return is a few of these predictable pieces of propaganda.
 
If it happens, then the only thing I can suggest is you write them back addressing the irrelevancy of the information in each paragraph they provided to you, in relation to your question, and try once again to reiterate your question in clearer and more technically precise language, if possible. This time however, you may want to type your question a bit slower, as it appears they're having a hard time understanding what is being asked when someone types at normal speed.
 
 
 
 The CRA's Shock & Awe Technique
 
Another emerging pattern which appears to be forming in response to the thousands of individual's taking personal responsibility and studying the law themselves to better exercise their inalienable human rights and fundamental freedoms, is what we'll call, the CRA's Shock and Awe Technique.
 
This technique is employed with the use of search and seizure warrants. Now this may sound weird, especially if you've been raised to believe that judges don't hand out search and seizure warrants like candy, and when they do there's reasonable ground to believe a crime has been committed.
 
However, it's amazing what you can do when you have the type of holier than thou influence of the CRA, and under the guise of good faith you know how to mask your true objective by picking and choosing selected pieces of information to create a picture of having the reasonable grounds of tax evasion needed for an application for a warrant to be approved.
 
In a sense, you could say that members of the judiciary are being used like the rest of us. The question remaining is, are they aware of it, and therefore acting in collusion with the CRA to preserve the Illusion, or are they merely gullible puppets being used to rubber stamp anything the CRA puts in front of them.
 
You have to wonder how many warrants to search and seize the private property of a natural person would the CRA get stamped if a judge asked them to first provide the evidence that a natural person is directly included within the definition of the word "person" in subsection 248(1) of the Income Tax Act. After all, one would think that without proof of such evidence, being able to establish reasonable grounds would be virtually impossible regardless of how the carefully selected pieces of information were put together.
 
Nevertheless, I'm sure only time will tell if members of the judiciary are acting in collusion with the CRA, or whether they're merely being used for a role they play in society. Until that time comes the CRA's Shock & Awe Technique is something we have to accept as part of the sad reality of the Illusion's emerging police state.
 
The CRA's Shock & Awe Technique however is very effective for creating propaganda. Not only does the presence of armed thugs storming into a business or resident scare the sheeple back into a corner of the pen, it creates a extreme burden on the individual, who up until then has probably made several sincere attempts to communicate with agents of the CRA in an open and honest manner, but, as the repetitive pattern of intentional evasive behavior has shown, to no avail.
 
Nevertheless, these Gestapo like raids happen. With a group of Manchurian candidate like drones the pack leader storms in with warrant in hand and begins to pilfer through private property looking for more pieces to pick and choose from in hopes of building their next tax evasion case.
 
It's sad really, many of the participants used in the deployment of the CRA's Shock & Awe Technique are still conscious enough to know that something about what they doing just isn't right, yet faced with losing a pay check they suppress their duty to humanity and follow the orders of their master like cowardly little children.
 
One example of this cowardly behaviour was witnessed first hand by an individual who was unfortunate enough to be chosen as a potential future CRA Poster Child of the Year. When his fateful day was upon him and his home was invaded by a group of drones and their leader, being stirred but not shaken, he set out to record the identity of each of the drones by taking a picture of each of their ID badges of dishonour.
 
Sensing the fear mounting in the drone's collective behaviour, the leader issued the following order to quickly cover their badges with their thumb. As with any well trained drone, they each blindly complied with the order, once again feeling above the law they swore to uphold.
 
Fortunately though, deployments of the CRA's Shock & Awe Technique are few and far between, as they're strategically carried out in selective places to achieve the greatest propaganda effect on society. Keeping track of the locations where this Shock and Awe Technique is deployed, it appears the CRA targets are in direct correlation to areas with higher levels of awakening masses.
 
You can see how this strategic deployment makes sense from their perspective. As more and more individuals begin to wake up to the reality of the Illusion's existence and begin to learn the truth about their true potential and unlimited capacity, the only hope the CRA has in preserving its ability to plunder the masses with impunity is to attempt these public displays of selective prosecution.
 
And to some degree it works. At least that's what the CRA agent in charge of a recent deployment of the CRA's Shock & Awe Technique said when asked about the number of agents it involved, around 25 to 30, and the amount of money it must cost to undertake such a deployment. He basically replied they don't really worry about the cost as these raids are used for advertising, because for every one person who is in attendance, they're sure to tell others, and so on, and so on.
 
Therefore, in addition to instilling some reaffirming fear into those who have yet to awaken, thus delaying the time of their awakening, the stage is set for them to achieve their ultimate goal of totally destroying an individual, financially, emotionally, and spiritually, with the hope the individual will drop back to their knees, and never again be willing to lift their head towards the light of the truth.
 
However, depending on the level of awareness of the individual this goal is not always achieved. In fact, sometimes, even though the CRA arrogantly hangs the carcass of their latest victim for all the world to see, the individual becomes empowered with a new sense of passion for truth and justice, and instead of cowering on their knees in worship to the Illusion's god of money, they become an even louder and more influential voice for the Illusion to deal with.
 
Nevertheless, with the inexhaustible resources obtained from plundering the masses, and with their ability to use the courts as weapons of mass destruction, the CRA must feel the rewards out weigh the consequences, especially when you consider that a successful campaign of shock and awe gives the CRA a renewed supply of raw material to produce a fresh batch of propaganda pabulum for pubic consumption.
 
As sad as these strategic deployments of the CRA's Shock & Awe Technique are, and as intolerable as they should be to the masses, the fact remains that although the CRA's cowardly tactics are despicable, and would be totally unnecessary if they could actually answer one simple question in their favour, they are for now, a part of the sad reality we face today.
