Holy crap. That is one of the sickest, most frightening CRA stories I've ever heard. Unbelievable. |

No attorney is willing to take it on a contingency basis? |

I don't think lawyers can do that in Canada. Their national and provincial Bar Associations won't allow it. |

How about pro-bono. then? It's probably moot. I can't imagine this guy can't find some sort of legal counsel, or somebody willing to put up the funds for counsel. He probably does, and this is a step being taken by the attorney to drum up some support and put some pressure on Revenue. |

I am the grey one

I find it hard to believe that this guy can bring a lawsuit against CRA but cannot retain counsel to pursue it. |

And look how our own PM is handling this? My gosh. We pay a dear high amount of taxes in this country already. You'd think some of this blessed money earned by Canadians could fund a competent group of people at the tax office. The guy needs his cash, his credit, and some over & above compensation for the sh*t he endured. |

No but I am sure that the Harper G'ovt will be more than happy to compensate the Omar Khadr, if he ever gets out of Gitmo, as we compensated Maher Arar- in the millions of dollars. |
