In the two weeks following the federal election, the CTF's pension calculations made headlines in every major media outlet across Canada. In addition to the major, mainstream networks and papers, many local and ethno-cultural papers carried the story, but perhaps none-so with the outrage displayed by The Indo-Canadian Voice. "Fat cat bonanza for election losers!" ran the headline, as it clearly expected it's readership to share what it feels to be an unfair fleecing of the taxpayer.

Anyone with depth in Canada's Indo-Canadian community will know that these are a group of fiercely entrepreneurial, self-reliant and family-oriented people. It is people that forged a real living with their own hard work that should - and seemingly are - most offended by the outrage that is the gold-plated MP pension plan.

As the CTF continues to reach out beyond its traditional group of supporters, we need communities like this to see an aligning of values and a reason to support the work we do.
