It could be you!

The place: Any town, Canada. The crime: Barbery. Enter Johnny Whiskers. He seems clean and tidy, but his finances are anything but. And here’s an unsuspecting customer. Why, it’s little Bobby Buttons! Right this way young man, for a shady shearing. And here we are. Where’s the shop? Well lather my whiskers! Although a travelling barber shop looks like fun, little does little Bobby Buttons know that Johnny Whiskers does everything on the sly. He avoids paying taxes by not reporting his earnings - this allows him to undercut his competitors and get an unfair advantage. That’s not the Capitalist way! His whole operation stinks more than that patchouli oil. Does Johnny Whisker understand that he’s biting the hands that feeds? This freeway ain’t free Johnny Whiskers! It’s paid for with taxes! By hard working, upright citizens like Bobby’s Pop. Even Spot here does his part.

Without taxes, Canada’s economy is very much like this house. Ho ho! Message delivered! Oh Bobby Buttons, if only you knew that you were inadvertently supporting the Underground Economy. So, get informed! Otherwise, it could be you!
