Wingnuts - Canada Style

For all that Canada is a generally quiet, pleasant country to live in, far be it from us not to have our own share of wingnut cases:

Nut Case Wants to Defer Tax Trial so he can attend his wife's exorcism.

This guy's a piece of work on two levels:

1. Both wife and daughter are to undergo "exorcisms" soon.

2. The reason for the tax trial is:

He said he refuses to pay taxes because he contends tax money is used in part to fund abortion procedures. He argues that to force him to indirectly participate violates his rights under the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.


Alrighty then, I think we have a pretty good picture of what is going on here, don't we?

Just offhand, I imagine his tax trial will be very short - and will end with a copy of the Income Tax Act thrown at him from the bench. I would guess that his appeals will be equally short lived.
