Subject: Katz Wants to Jew Taxpayers=$900 MILLION - Not $100 Million

So Far:
$100 Million - shortfall by Harper
$125 Million - Katz dislikes ticket tax
$125 Million - CRL pipedream, like on Fort Rd.
$200 Million - infrastructure, utilities 
$150 Million - per developers, contractors

$700 MILLION SO FAR, Out of $800 Million COST, 
EXCLUDING ANOTHER $75  MILLION FOR THE CITY LAND !!

In other words, Katz only paying around 10% of BILLION DOLLARS TOTAL COST

Even former Edmonton mayors - Bill Smith + CecPurves oppose this  scam on
taxpayers

Article in newspapers, quoting MLA Brian Mason in Legislature, says that both
Toronto and Vancouver both refused to pay a cent to new sports arenas, and
teams arranged for own buildings - WITH NO TAXPAYER MONEY !!

And the citizens of Edmonton will get ripped off as usual. Just think 
they could have put in a new Council at the last election but NO they 
had to bring back too many of the old bunch of idiots.

ABSOLUTELY NO TAXPAYER MONEY FOR KATZ ARENA !!

Glad to see that Harper nixes the Katz Arena.

Mandel blames lack of support from local MPs, especially Rona Ambrose, 
for kiss of death.

It seems that there are some sensible MPs.

There must be absolutely not one cent of public money for the Katz Arena 
! If he wants to pay $450 million himself, plus all infrastructure 
costs, let him.

The poor taxpayers do not need another repeat of the shafting they had 
with the Ghermezians.
Over ONE BILLION DOLLARS of taxpayer monies disappeared into the 
bottomless hole, and do not forget the ATB Bribery Charges involving 
RCMP investigation.

It should not be necessary for Christians, Muslims, and even atheists to 
subsidize and finance a damn BUSINESS - run by a JEW!

If the business is any good, then let him pay ALL THE COSTS, out of all 
his billions from running Rexall drugs and other businesses.

Why doesn't Katz rebuild at Northlands, for around half his mentioned 
cost -which has already cost hundreds of millions of taxpayer's money - 
for buildings, infrastructure, and a functioning LRT to the door.

Downtown construction will just increase traffic congestion, noise to 
neighbouring homes, and probably a serious increase of crimes due to 
location proposed and criminal residents in the area involved in drugs 
for example.

With the city pleading insolvency in having money for essential 
services, such as road repairs, snow removal, emergency services, mainly 
due to overpaid bureaucrats, and now that THE FEDS HAVE REFUSED TO FUND 
ARENAS, we should not even be considering a damn non-essential arena, 
where overpaid thugs just try to score.

Glad to see that Northlands are demanding to run any arena where any 
public money gets involved. At least Northlasnds put some of their 
profits back into the community, so that taxpayers do not get jewed!

Notice that there is NOT  ONE CHRISTIAN betwen, Katz, Mandel, Rosen!

Even former mayor Purves is against any taxpayer money going towards 
this arena.

Christians of every denomination, muslims, atheists and agnostics, call 
Councillors Diotte, Caterina, Sohi and Anderson to let them know you 
oppose this scam.

Also call 311 to also complain.

By the way councillor Leibovici was  whining on TV. She says she sees no 
conflict of interest in her voting for Katz, when her husband works for 
drugstore franchise owned by Katz !
There must be something in MGA to get her prosecuted and impeached

Watch the filthy Christkillers and their disgusting shabbas-goys
refuse to answer the facts in the article.  

Notice how parasitic criminals including diseased AIDS-spreaders, 
drug dealers and child molesters, and Madoff type swindlers, 
all refuse to answer facts detailed.

They are so delusional, from using illegal drugs and  AIDS,
that whenever they see an article which they dislike, they 
blame it on a grosvenor.

So, these vermin forge and fabricate articles, claiming that a 
nemesis happily retired in muslim S. Philippines is haunting them.
