Doug Collins @ get this straight ® ANYONE WHO thinks the Baloneyite Tories are going to be tough on liars claiming to be refugees should think again. The same applies to the handling of the immigration mess in general. Ottawa plans to go on flooding the coun- try with Third Worlders. Item: Gordon Fairweather is to head the new Immigration and Refugee Board. And there is no bigger bleeder in the country. Once a Tory MP, for the past 10 years he's been chairman of the Canadian Human Rights Com- mission — a plum handed to him by Pierre Trudeau, they seeing the world through the same liberal goggles. With dog-like devotion, Fairweather has always backed ethnics and the militant fems. Did Sikhs want to wear turbans and daggers in the plant, even though they knew when they took those jobs that hard hats were the rule and weapons of no kind were permitted? Fairweather was for them. Right up to the Supreme Court of Canada. At your expense, naturally. The NDP socialists adore this guy, who is an unashamed statist when it comes to forcing the com- mon folk to hew to his line, In June he was yelling that women don’t do enough com- plaining. They have lodged only 78 complaints in 10 years about not getting equal pay for work of equal value, he lamented. His remedy? Employers should be forced to do what Fairweather City opposes tax reforms THE CITY of North Vancouver has joined the growing opposition to proposed tax reforms announc- ed by Minister of Finance Michael Wilson. After receiving a report from ci- ty treasurer A.K. Tollistam, council unanimously disagreed with the federal government’s Sales Tax Reform, and voted to throw its weight behind the efforts of the Federation of Canadian Municipalities in promoting sales tax exemption for Canadian municipalities. Tollstam’s report notes $2.8 mil- lion was spent by the city up to Oct. 19 on capital works, such as constructing roads, bridges and upgrading waterworks. If labor were to become taxable, additional costs would run between $100,000 and $200,000, and ‘our total tax bill could increase from anywhere between $200,000 and $300,000,”’ he said. It is expected that the city tax levy would have to be increased by approximately two per cent to cover these extra costs. Personal income taxes will be lower under Wilson’s proposed tax reform, but Ald. Stella Jo Dean said: ‘It would just be shifted on- to the municipal taxpayer.” ” Classifieds Sell — 986-6222 thinks is best for suffering womanhood. He would then be able to put the women’s world to rights even though they think it’s OK. (The ‘twork of equal value” madness is not the same as paying people the same money for doing the same job. It is having bureaucrats decide whether a clerk is worth as much as an ac- countant, and paying accordingly.) This is the guy who for $100,000 a year is now going to be the Tsar, Kaiser and Potentate of the refugee and illegal immigrant scene. Already he wants an amnesty for the 40,000 phonies and iNegals already on the books. So there’s a fat lot of hope that he will be tough with the surging throngs of liars who will follow. The refugee-screening legisla- tion under which they. will be judged — if it ever gets past those Liberal hacks in the Senate — is timid enough. Even so, Fairweather is against it. It of- fends his world - embracing humanitarian feelings and he makes no bones about it. “TI don’t intend to be a gatekeeper in Canada at this stage in my public career,’’ declared this arrogant leftwinger the other CONTROVERSIAL News Get ’ This Straight columnist Doug Col- lins will be signing and selling copies of his new book Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the News offices, 1139 Lonsdale Ave., North Vancouver. The hardback edition of The Best and Worst of Doug Collins ($16.95), published by North Van- ve day. Great stuff, eh? The man who's being paid $100,000 a year to be gatekeeper doesn’t want :o keep the gate. Fairweather also says that the feds are on the right course in con- sulting hin about who is to be the new agency’s executive director. If it's up to him, the job will go to the biggest wimp they can find: Kathleen Ruff, perhaps, the former head of the B.C. Human Rights Branch who went around asking company bosses why they didn’t hire more men with beards. One thing is certain. The Baloneyites will appoint no one to this board who intends to be tough. Wimpland will still be Wimpland. If you doubt thai, consider the boost in the ‘‘family reunifica- tion’’ nonsense under which more than 50 per cent of immigrants to this country get in simply because they have a relative here. Nearly all of them come from India, China, Guyana, etc. That proportion will now rise because ‘‘children’’ over 21 years of age will be admitted as ‘‘family class.” Totally bonkers, we are. xk k * For the phone-callers: yes, you can get the infamous ‘‘Best and Worst of Doug Collins’? book of columns at the North Shore News tomorrow between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. Vil be on hand to sign copies.
