'These' people sure do have a rather unique way, of perceiving a situation, or scenario - case in point:

"The missing funds isn’t money that was donated"

"came from government funds and partners"

So what would that be considered - an investment or a donation?

"the amount gone missing wasn’t immediately noticeable because the Salvation Army is a multi-million dollar organization in Ottawa"

So what that boils down to is this - organizations with lots of money, typically don't care to keep track of the money, and to lose (gone missing), almost a quarter of a million dollars, is no problemo - especially if the organization is in OTTAWA - like the organization called GOVERNMENT?

"the money (gone missing) won’t impact the operation of any of the Salvation Army’s programs."

So according to Major Murray; 'they' don't depend on monies ($240,000) handed to them, by GOVERNMENTS and PARTNERS, to fund 'their' programs - its only the money that their 'Santas' and soldiers collect, as they set up for donations in the shopping malls, and perhaps through other means as well...Hmmm?

I an certain, that two hundred and forty thousand dollars, could go a very long way, in re-stocking the shelves of the various "food banks" - that of which, we are constantly reminded are at critically low levels.
