I think he got a reasonable sentence. He may yet lose a portion of his federal pension should a law be passed in parliament to deal with breaches of trust.

"It came to me that every time I lose a dog they take a piece of my heart with them. And every new dog who comes into my life gifts me with a piece of their heart. If I live long enough, all the components of my heart will be dog, and I will become as generous and loving as they are."--Unknown

We haven't heard the last of Joe Fontana.

The RCMP are still investigating ponzi schemes that he's connected to.

Not to mention his bogus charity that issued millions of dollars worth of tax receipts but neglected to give most of the money to charities. The same charity that his son heads up. The same charity where one of the former board members (Joe's former partner) is charged with defrauding millions from people.

I just hope that the current legislation regarding MP pensions is passed. It would be retroactive and Joe would lose the portion of his pension paid by the taxpayers (he paid in about 10% of it with his own money).

Changes to parliamentary pension plan adopted in 2012:

Contributions by MPs and senators to the parliamentary pension plan are slowly increasing, and will hit a 50:50 cost-sharing ratio with taxpayers by Jan. 1, 2017.

The changes mean MPs will see their annual contributions rise from approximately $11,000 in 2012 to around $39,000 (or possibly slightly more, depending on MP salaries) by 2017. The largest hikes in MPs’ pension contributions will occur in the last two years of the phase-in.

Currently, parliamentarians who have served six years can receive full pension benefits at age 55. Starting in 2016, full pension benefits earned will be paid out at age 65.
