I am in the same perplexing situation you are Clunk, I also am ashamed to live in Canada knowing the level of corruption that exists here.
I still have not seen one cent of the money Transport Canada owes me for the damage they did to me and my family, and the truth is I will die with only two things to show for standing up to the system.....the documents that prove I won my case of unlawful treatment from Transport Canada ....and even more important to me the satisfaction of knowing I will die with the satisfaction of not bending over for morally corrupt officials....
....Oh and the satisfaction of having made a new career outside of Canada that was far more rewarding than the one I lost in Canada.
Anyhow I don't want to get Pprune involved any further with my issues....
I will drop by and see you this summer when I am in Ontario.
