Yee hah!
Everyone hold your breath....my ordeal with Revenue Canada is almost over!! After waiting a little over 12 weeks for someone from the CRAto return my numerous calls I finally went into my MP's office to complain. I typed up a nice letter and printed a copy of my log that I have been keeping and traveled to a part of Kitchener that I have never been too and actually found some help! After explaining my situation the lady fired off a fax and told me that she would call me as soon as she found out anything...a couple of hours later she called to tell me that her contact at CRA was looking into it and would call her back after the weekend! Today she called to tell me that they would call me sometime this week...
Mid Afternoon and I nearly fell off my seat when call display said Government of Canada...could it be? It was!! The lady said that she had reviewed my receipts and decided that they were in the wrong and in a mere 6-8 weeks everything should be back to normal. She even gave me a phone number where I could reach her should I have any questions...that's right...contrary to public belief (and the tax help line) assessors DO have phones!
Well, there you go folks. Democracy in action...having a Member of Parliament actually can help you!

Dan -- that's great! Which MP did you speak with?
Here's to you xoxoxxoxo
Now, can you do something about the weather?! ;-D
Dan - i admired your perseverance. From your 'adventure' i learned a couple of things: ALWAYS keep a log when trying to resolve a conflict, persist and go to the top if you don't get what you need.
KUDOS! You're an inspiration. Now, about that weather....!!!!
