HASIDIC GROUP CHARGED WITH $60 MILLION FRAUD
The Tash folks, who may or may not have invited neo-Nazi Haider to their
wedding, now have worse headaches to worry about.
Huge tax scam exposed
Religious group issued phony receipts for tens of millions
Hundreds of people and businesses in Montreal's Jewish community are to face
criminal charges or be required to pay tens of millions of dollars in evaded
taxes as a result of a guilty plea yesterday in a Saint-Jerome court. The guilty
plea by a religious group connected to the Hasidic community in suburban
Boisbriand capped a two-year investigation of what federal tax auditors say is
the largest-ever tax fraud involving a religious organization in Quebec.
The religious group, which is known as Construit Toujours Avec Bonte and has
links to the Montreal Rabbinical College, pleaded guilty to issuing tax receipts
for charitable donations that overstated the amount of the donation.
A senior Montreal construction executive blew the whistle on the scam when he
approached Revenue Canada, now part of the Canadian Customs and Revenue Agency,
with taped information in 1997. The resulting investigation saw federal tax
sleuths seize about $60 million in phony receipts from individuals and
businesses in the Jewish community, court documents say.
Joseph Gutstadt, president of Magil Construction International, the
whistle-blower who exposed the fraud, said in a telephone interview last night
from Israel: "I'm happy that, at the end of the day, justice has prevailed."
But Gutstadt said he was disappointed that Construit Toujours was fined only
$400,000, and that none of the administrators of the organization or the
rabbinical college were charged.
(Montreal Gazette, sent in by R. Shultz)
In pursuit of donors linked to tax evasion Hundreds in Jewish community under
scrutiny by federal officials. Federal tax investigators insisted yesterday that
they will continue an investigation involving hundreds of people and businesses
in the Jewish community suspected of participating in a charitable-donation tax
fraud. The case involves about $60 million in claimed donations, federal tax
officials said, making it Quebec's largest-ever tax fraud involving a religious
organization.
On Wednesday, a religious group connected to the Hasidic community of Tash, in
suburban Boisbriand, pleaded guilty to issuing charitable-donation tax receipts
which overstated the amounts actually given.
Yesterday, the community, through a public-relations firm, asserted that
government officials had agreed not to go after donors who participated in the
scam. The same statement said the community's Montreal Rabbinical College would
retain the right to issue charitable-donation receipts that can be used to
reduce donors' tax liabilities.

Nizkor tenders 5% to the League for Human Rights of B'nai Brith
Canada. This is done to compensate the League for administration
and accounting expenses. (This was done at my request, since the
League offered to handle the fund on a pro bono basis, and I did
not think that would be fair.)
Ten per cent of all donated funds are credited to the Nizkor
Endowment Fund. Fund assets are invested to provide support for
Nizkor in perpetuity, and are not used for current expenses.

I hate to burst your bubble, Bubba, but this information is

You can, but it won't get cashed, since Nizkor does not have
any bank accounts. If you feel the need, of course, by all means
write a cheque to Nizkor. It will be returned to you promptly
if you enclose a self-addressed, stamped envelope (Canadian
postage only).

It does - see Whois.

Yes, in fact, they can.

Tough break, eh? Nizkor's post office address is public knowledge,
and that's as good as you're going to get. Live with it. (Who on
earth would want a filthy-mouthed twit like Don Ellis calling them?)

It's my part in the continuing global conspiracy to keep you
ignorant, of course. (You are correct, however, in asserting that
Nizkor is run by a gentile, but your bedfellows won't believe you.)
>f) Does Ken McVay pay himself a salary for his work for Nizkor?
Yup - I also appreciate revenue from public speaking and site advertising.
<end/quote>
The above only proves "one hand washes the other" and this statement made
by Ken McVay "Nizkor tenders 5% to the League for Human Rights of B'nai
Brith Canada. This is done to compensate the League for administration and
accounting expenses." only shows him giving a "reward" to the very people
who launder his exempt donations he receives which he is not by law entitled
to receive on his own; hence the tax scheme devised to circumvent the law.
As for Ken McVay's statement: "Ten per cent of all donated funds are credited to
the Nizkor Endowment Fund. Fund assets are invested to provide support for
Nizkor in perpetuity.." is also very telling seeing how Nizkor is Ken McVay so
just substitute Ken McVay where you see Nizkor mentioned. It is Ken McVay
Endowment Fund and it is Ken McVay Trust Fund and both being funded through
B'nai Brith. Ken McVay is the sole operator (and sole recipient of exempt
funding) of Nizkor.

Straight from CCRA: "we have no record of a registered
charity by the name of Nizkor.org."
Canadian revenue payers you need to contact CCRA and
ask them how a website is able to receive "exempt
donations" when it is neither a registered charity or
a Non Profit Organization.
A letter (included below) from CCRA advises me they
never heard of NIZKOR.ORG so you all should be asking
how Nizkor is offering:
"Donations over $10.00 will receive a Canadian tax
receipt" when it is nothing more than a website!
A ONE-MAN BUSINESS RUN BY KEN MCVAY!!
CCRA said: "we have no record of a registered charity
by the name of Nizkor.org." (Letter included below)
Only registered charities are allowed to issue "Canadian
receipts"!!
"A registered charity is a charity that has specifically
applied to the Canada Customs and Revenue Agency for
registration and has been accepted as such. A registered
charity can issue charitable receipts for tax purposes."

Thank you for your e-mail.
The Charities Directorate of the Canada Customs and
Revenue Agency is responsible for the registration
and compliance of charities in Canada.
These organizations are similar to "exempt organizations"
as are registered in the United States.
However, we have no record of a registered charity
by the name of Nizkor.org.
Additionally, due to the confidentiality provisions
of the Canadian Income Tax Act, I am unable to
disclose information concerning a particular
organization's tax affairs, including measures
taken or to be taken by the Department resulting
from complaints. However, I wish to assure you that
all complaints received by the Department are
treated seriously and are fully investigated,
where appropriate.
Finally, the annual information returns of
Canadian registered charities are available to
the public. However, as you will note from the above,
Nizkor.org is not a registered charity.
The non-profit information return which you
describe is not available to the public.
Thank you for bringing your concerns to our attention.
Sincerely,
Blaine Langdon

Glad to see you making that a public record.
Care to explain how a website not being either an "NPO nor a Charity" can
operate as you do and issue tax receipts?
You are NOT allowed by law to grant tax receipts according to CCRA statutes
which you so conveniently deleted. The more you act like a pompous arrogant
ass- the more it makes me want to put you in your place.

<<Doc Tavish Comments>>
I don't think Nizkor promotes amateur athletics in
Canada! Please note that the law states above:
"no part of the income of these organizations
can be payable to or otherwise available for
the personal benefit of any proprietor.." yet Ken
McVay is the proprietor or director of Nizkor
(a website) and he is on public record (also shown
below) as responding to this question: "Does Ken
McVay pay himself a salary for his work for Nizkor?"
with "Yup."
Plainly this violates the above and seeing how Nizkor
operates as a back room operation from the "proprietor's"
own house (proven below) this operation should be very
questionable!
Finally note that Ken McVay announced in a public
posting above: "Nizkor is neither an NPO nor a Charity.
Nizkor is a website." How does a "website" warrant
receiving "exempt donations"?
<<End of Doc Tavish Comments>>
Distinguishing non-profit organizations from registered
charities:
An NPO is not a registered charity.
A registered charity is a charity that has specifically
applied to the Canada Customs and Revenue Agency for
registration and has been ACCEPTED by CCRA as such.
A registered charity can issue charitable receipts for
tax purposes. An NPO does not have to register either
federally or provincially to maintain
its privileged tax status.
Generally, registered charities also have to disburse
80% of the funds for which they issued charitable receipts
on their own charitable activities or as gifts to qualified
donees.
NPOs cannot issue tax receipts for donations or membership
fees contributed, and they are not required to disburse a
specified percentage of their earnings.
<end/quote[End of CCRA web page]>
Notice what CCRA said about "issu[ing] charitable receipts
for tax purposes"? Look at McVay's operation and see if it
complies with the law stated above:
"NPOs cannot issue tax receipts for donations.."
yet Ken McVay's very own BUSINESS - NIZKOR page says:
"Donations over $10.00 will receive a Canadian tax receipt."
Ken McVay also is on record as claiming that NIZKOR is NOT a
charity!

How does Mr. Bradbury "know" these things?
How does Mr. Bradbury "know" that Nizkor is a "charitable
organization?" (Can he show that anyone from Nizkor has
ever claimed to be such an organization?)
<end/quote>
Being facetious: Well now we know Nizkor is not a "charitable organization"
so it has to be an NPO?! So why does Ken McVay's "NPO" declare at its web
page: "Donations over $10.00 will receive a Canadian tax receipt" which would
be in violation of: "NPOs cannot issue tax receipts for donations" but Ken
McVay lies to a person who's an object of his smear campaign: "McVay/Nizkor"
has never issued tax receipts of any sort.." Then again McVay admitted higher
up in this post: "Nizkor is neither an NPO nor a Charity. Nizkor is a website."
See how NIZKOR skirts all criteria of the tax laws?
Does Nizkor or does Nizkor not look crooked?
Seeing how Ken McVay's Nizkor accepts "exempt donation[s]"
it would be interesting to see why the Canadian Government
actually approves an organization with such tax status to
operate under the conditions Ken McVay's Nizkor does.
To this very day Ken McVay will not answer these
questions:
1) What is the tax number of Nizkor?
2) What is the physical address of Nizkor?
3) What is the phone number of Nizkor?
4) Where can one find the organizational papers for Nizkor?
a) How many people compose the Nizkor staff?
According to ex-staffers who have posted articles to
newsgroups, McVay IS THE SOLE PAID EMPLOYEE OF THE
BUSINESS!!!
b) What are the financial responsibilities of Nizkor?
5) What is the evidence offered that Nizkor is authorized to
solicit tax free contributions?
6) How much money does Nizkor Org receive yearly as charitable
donations?
7) You show below that you pay yourself-- what is your yearly pay?

Indeed it did. Why anyone would post an article that was nearly
five years out of date as if it had relevance is beyond me, but
then, we're dealing with "revisionist scholars" here, so it isn't the
least surprising.
> Thus it remains what it always was. A website run soley by Ken.
Indeed.
<end/quote>
Remember folks the bottom line:
a) Nizkor is a web site solely operated by Ken McVay.
Nizkor is Ken McVay from a backroom of his personal
residence.
b) The Nizkor Endowment Fund is Ken McVay.
c) The Nizkor Trust Fund is Ken McVay.
d) Ken McVay is not entitled to receive "exempt donations"
because his web site is neither an NPO (Non Profit Organization)
nor a registered charity.
e) McVay receives "laundered" exempt donations through B'nai
Brith.
f) McVay then kicks back 5% as tribute.
Those facts can not be denied.
The term AUDIT keeps popping up in my mind!

B'nai B'rith campaign
JEAN GERBER SPECIAL TO THE JEWISH BULLETIN
Vancouver B'nai B'rith has announced its 2002 fund-raising campaign to support
local and international activities...
"B'nai B'rith supported the Salmon Arm Coalition Against Racism when its
director, David Lethbridge, was sued...
<<Tavish comment September 21, 2003: Notice B'nai Brith is documented as
supporting communist Lethbridge in this document.>>
...While the defence of Lethbridge was unsuccessful in the courts, it exposed
the racist, anti-Semitic activities of these people to such an extent they have
been effectively shut down. It was undoubtedly the most satisfying case I have
ever undertaken."
The campaign will continue to Aug. 30. Tax-deductible contributions can be
made to the B'nai B'rith Foundation of B.C., 1260 Hove St., Vancouver, B.C., V6Z
1R5.." <END>
BTW the above is the same exact address B'nai Brith launders exempt donations
to Ken McVay's Nizkor which is a website "solely" operated by Ken McVay which is
not directly allowed to receive tax exempt donations.

League for Human Rights
[A] set-back for the anti-racist movement in B.C., indeed across Canada, came
with the court's finding in favour of Eileen and Klaus Pressler in their
defamation suit against Dr. David Lethbridge. The Salmon Arm couple sued CHBC (a
Kelowna television station) and Lethbridge, a psychology professor and human
rights activist, on the basis of one eight minute television news story in 1993
that allegedly impugned their reputations by ?unfairly casting them as white
supremacists and neo-Nazi hate mongers?.... As Lethbridge's lawyer, Irvine
Epstein. Q.C. put it: ?This case is about the right, and indeed the duty of a
concerned citizen to inform and educate others in opposition to those who preach
racial hatred, bigotry and intolerance.?
The B'nai Brith Lodge and League in B.C. continue to provide moral and financial
support to Lethbridge through a province-wide and national fundraising campaign.
An appeal is planned as the eyes of the anti-racism and human rights community
are on this very important case. <END>

CPC: Always In The Struggle Against Racism and Fascism
David Lethbridge
The Communist Party of Canada came into existence in 1921, just as fascism was
taking hold in Europe. The Party was born into a Canada that was rife with
English privilege and Anglo-Saxon prejudice and racism. Among its first
struggles were those against the racist Toronto police establishment which
sought to prevent any public speeches in any language other than English...
Today, the People's Voice continues the fight against racism and fascism. The
paper consistently reports on the people's resistance to the extreme right,
detailing both its defeats and its victories. Across the country, the Communist
Party of Canada unites with many organizations... <END>

THE SPECTRE OF GLOBAL FASCISM
By David Lethbridge, Director, Bethune Institute for Anti-Fascist Studies
1999 WAS A YEAR of struggle in the anti-fascist movement. The Bethune
Institute, carrying out a consistently militant approach, was able to achieve a
number of successes...
The driving force toward global fascism is US imperialism. Like an
ever-expanding bloodstain, it is spreading and deepening its influence into
every corner of the world. Intent on global economic domination, it is backed up
by a ruthless and sophisticated military machine...
But to many workers today, the idea of global US fascism is literally
unthinkable. Imperialist control of ideology means that the very mode in which
people think is manipulated. The ideological attack against socialism,
Communism, and working-class power continues unabated. Further, since elections
continue to be held, and the State continues to operate through a multi-party
system, the spectre of global fascism remains largely invisible at very centre
of its production.
In this context, it is worth quoting what Lenin wrote in 1919, as
fascism first began to take hold: "The forms of domination may vary: capital
manifests its power in one way where one form exists, and in another way where
another form exists - but essentially the power is in the hands of capital,
whether there are voting qualifications or some other rights or not - in fact,
the more democratic it is the cruder and more cynical is the rule of
capitalism...
Yet global US fascism is more an undeniable possibility than an
accomplished reality. Counter-trends are developing. Mass movements opposing
corporate globalization are maturing. The working class and the peasantry,
especially in South America, is rising and showing signs of strength. Organized
labour in North America is reaching toward left positions. Socialist and
Communist parties around the world are holding their own and building their
base. <END>

...As long as capitalism exists, the threat of fascism will never be eliminated.
Fascism, as a social and political movement, is a form of capitalism that does
away with the pretence of parliamentary democracy, and rules instead by force
and terror.
Today, neo-fascism is again on the rise... Fascist ideas have entered the
social mainstream and are shifting the political consensus ever further to the
right.
In order to help combat and defeat contemporary fascism, the Bethune
Institute is providing an on-going series of documents exposing every facet of
this most anti-democratic form of political expression.
But neo-fascism cannot be eliminated without a radical transformation of
society. Capitalism breeds racism and fascism the way a fly breeds maggots.
The struggle against fascism, and its organized racist core, is at the same
time a revolutionary struggle against capitalism itself.... <END>

Sometimes it just slips out. The carefully engineered facade, prepared
by advertising agencies, media experts, and speechwriters educated at the very
best of schools, cracks wide open. The benign and caring image presented to
the public as the face of contemporary capitalism disappears and is
replaced by the ugly reality within.
So it was with Silvio Berlusconni, Prime Minister of Italy, leader of
the G8, and ally of President George W. Bush in the new "War on Terrorism."
Berlusconni, the ultra-conservative billionaire...
Bush is [] careful, although barely so. The ideology that accompanies
the endless expansion of US capital, and the endless wars of US imperialism, is
the intertwined ideology of white supremacy, of Christian supremacy, and of
anti-communism....

Dear Friend:
If you have read our defence fund letters, you know that we need
$100,000 to fight organized racism. It seems like a lot of
money, but consider this: If only 4000 people gave $25 each, the
money would be raised in no time. We believe that there must be
4000 people in this country who are willing to lend a hand in
this fight. We hope you are one of those 4000 people. This
struggle is not just Dr. Lethbridge's struggle; it is the
struggle of all those who are opposed to racism, neo-nazism, and
holocaust denial.
We do not ask you to help, as if we were beggars. We ask you to
join us.
