- ...I would love to see an increase in both these plans and am willing to stop funding arts and crafts, reducing the beauracracy in Ottawa, stop funding for bi-lingual and diversity programs, etc. etc. to accomplish the increase.
- Terence Corcoran: Stop the music! CARP speaks

t around 3:45 p.m. yesterday afternoon on Toronto’s Classical 96.3 FM, just before playing Una Furtiva Lagrima, a Donizetti aria from Peruvian glamour tenor Juan Diego Florez’s Grammy nominated album, Bel Canto Spectacular, it was time for a news break. Stop the music! Here’s the latest major development: The New Democratic Party of Ontario wants the province to create a new provincial pension plan that would cover the “six out of 10 Ontario residents without a workplace pension, but it wouldn’t be mandatory.”
Since Classical 96.3 FM is owned by MZMedia, which is owned by Moses Znaimer, who controls a flock of interests as part of his micro-media empire under the brand name Zoomers, aimed at Baby Boomers with zip, and since Zoomer also includes ownership of the profit-making Canadian Association of Retired People (CARP), of which Mr. Znaimer is executive director, and since CARP just launched yesterday its own agit-prop campaign to embarrass Ottawa into setting up a new national “supplementary” pension scheme, it is obviously no coincidence that Classical 96.3 FM should find a new NDP-promoted state-run pension scheme to be of news value.
