TORONTO: The Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) today applauded the Harper government for passing into law provisions banning prisoners like Clifford Olson from receiving Old Age Security (OAS) and Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS) entitlements while in jail. CTF Federal Director Kevin Gaudet said, “the Harper government and Minister Finley moved quickly with support of opposition parties to end this injustice and deserve credit for that”.
