On hiring 300 new Auditors

Do the quick math on that... 300 new auditors, times $80,000 per year (I figured that ought to cover the median salary, benefits, office space/equipment, etc) and what do you come up with? That's right... $24 MILLION dollars a year. And that's a BARE MINIMUM.

Don't they get it? I've got a cheaper way to do it... give Shelia Fraser the full access she needs and the mandate to look under every rock, and boost her department's funding by a meager 1 or 2 million for more staff and resources, and I'll bet ya she'll find a whole lot of waste and corruption.

The Liberal solution? Just breeding ground for more problems. But it sure looks good for the press.
