lookinforwalleye Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 Well we are as a province 287 billion dollars in debt....and the Liberal party of Toronto is running a 10.9 billion budget deficit, please stop the madness I have absolutely no confidence in this group of politicians to run anything....they have not created a real long term manufacturing job worth talking about in years all that is done is increase taxes, increase the deficit and debt and now they want to sell Hydro not to eliminate the debt or deficit but to build transit which will increase the deficit and debt....I have no doubt that if you still smoke you will be paying more and if you like a beer after work that will cost you more and I also imagine that gas, and every license and fee will be increased as well. For those of you out there that continue to vote Liberal Thanks!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmer Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 We have turned into a service based economy that is unsustainable. Therefore, the need to raise taxes, prices and fees. It seems many are okay with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

porkpie Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 I can't find a single person who admits to voting for the provincial liberals. Wonder why? My wife is a teacher and we still wouldn't vote for these sandbaggers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigugli Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 They are all corrupt, and not one party is going to act in the best interest of most in this promise. Each party will continue to cater to their faithful, and the special lobbies, and the porkbarrel continues in perpetuity. As for the deficits and debt. Rae left a big debt for Harris. Harris, in turn, left one for the Liberals to build on, and Wynne will add to it for the next party that takes over, and that party will again do the same. The same thing has happened in Ottawa since the 70's. Every political dynasty has left a mess behind for the new guys to clean up, and Harper will be no different.

fishnsled Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 (edited) I know of one person that voted for the Liberals in the last election, almost ended our friendship of 35 years. lol. Met up with them yesterday and asked how they felt about the Liberals now? No comment. I hope the new budget comes with lots of lube as I believe we will need it. I still bang my head over this party and how corrupt they are. YET!!! They still got voted in. Not that there was much choice in the last election.... :wallbash: Edit - you nailed it bigugli.

Paudash Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 it is sort of like when the NDP were elected in the 80's They got the votes but everyone says they never voted for them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmer Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 kathleen-wynne-corrupt-620x344.jpg No kidding. Most of us would be in jail if we pulled half the stuff they did. Maybe the liberals can govern T.O. and the rest of us can choose another party. However, bigugli is probably right about what we can expect from the other parties.

John Bacon Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 As for the deficits and debt. Rae left a big debt for Harris. Harris, in turn, left one for the Liberals to build on, and Wynne will add to it for the next party that takes over, and that party will again do the same. That is ture; however, the McGuinty/Wynne Liberals have accumulated more debt than all of the other parties combined. And their contribution to the debt is still growing.

Headhunter Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 I won't be at all surprised when the government announces that they are going to be implementing M.U.D. as the NDP did, under Bob Rae. (Mandatory Un-paid Days) I also don't think the Liberals give one hoot about the teachers going out, as folks walking the picket line, don't get paid. The gov can save a lot of money, the longer these folks stay off the job. HH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave524 Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 Grimsby Town Council says we can expect a reduction in property taxes of about 5% this year, we also are Conservative both federally and provincially. A little oasis in the toxic red tide of the last provincial election. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralph Field Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 THE HAIRCUT "Blessed are those that can give without remembering, and take without forgetting.” One day a florist went to a barber for a haircut. After the cut, he asked about his bill, and the barber replied, 'I cannot accept money from you, I'm doing community service this week.' The florist was pleased and left the shop. When the barber went to open his shop the next morning, there was a 'thank you' card and a dozen roses waiting for him at his door. Later, a policeman comes in for a haircut, and when he tries to pay his bill, the barber again replies, 'I cannot accept money from you, I'm doing community service this week.' The policeman was happy and left the shop. The next morning when the barber went to open up, there was a 'thank you' card and a dozen donuts waiting for him at his door. Then a Member of Parliament came in for a haircut, and when he went to pay his bill , the barber again replied, 'I cannot accept money from you. I'm doing community service this week.' The Member of Parliament was very happy and left the shop. The next morning, when the barber went to open up, there were a dozen Members of Parliament lined up waiting for a free haircut. And that, my friends, illustrates the fundamental difference between the citizens of our country and the politicians who run it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netminder Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 Maybe the liberals can govern T.O. and the rest of us can choose another party. I think it was the mpp from my old riding that suggested that... Also, as for the liberals "winning" the last election, I think it was more like the other parties lost. It was like voting for a giant loser or a turd sandwich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was like voting for a giant loser or a turd sandwich. Exactly!!! My riding choices were, to be quite honest, either dishonest or pathetic. In good conscience my only real option was to decline my ballot. Until I have some real choices between candidates, I will continue to register my displeasure in the same manner.

jimmer Posted April 24, 2015 Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 I always love how they talk about reducing/balancing the deficit. How about the 200+ billion dollar debt. No level of Government should ever be able to get an unbalanced budget approved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moxie Posted April 25, 2015 Report Share Posted April 25, 2015 the good news is they only have a majority for 3 more years we only have ourselves to blame Sorry but I will not be held responsible for something public"servants" were complicit in. They chose to save their own cushy asses and hung the rest of us out to twist in the wind. Not too bright when you think about it. When the axe falls on their collective necks as it most certainly will, I know I won't be in my garage making signs to help them protest so they can take more from those of us that pay their freight. They acted like selfish and spoiled brats. I, like them, will watch out for my own from now on. With all due respect of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NANUK Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 There was no ways Liberals could win the last elections with all the lies and scandals of Mr.Mguilty, gas plant, orange, e-health, list goes on.............................. Tim Hudak gave it to them in a gold platter. over 30% of Ontario workers work for union, what was he thinking ? his own buddies asked him to step down from leadership.

Fair enough Stone but they did win it with lies. Public employees were lied too by their own. At least Tim laid it all out. The truth is the public sector was gonna have to bleed regardless of who came to power and that isnt fair for those who deserve to serve . But at least they'll have only themselves to blame when the gut hook finds its mark. Too bad soo sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
