Default Canadian Unions the Biggest Political Spenders in Canada

Not sure how many people have looked through the database of provincial political donations put together by the National Post, but some of the results are shocking.

Donations by Unions, both public and private sector, are by far and away the largest contributors to provincial politics in Canada. Is there any surprise we've seen such huge growth in public sector employment recently?

It definitely raises questions about the ethics involved in using force to garnish workers wages and then to turn around and use those wages as donations to preferred political groups. I would imagine this is an activity the majority of Canadians would not support the use of their public dollars (obviously for public unions).

Regardless, it's a great look at the huge money being thrown around by these groups and their political partners.
