Ontario Liberal budget

[Canuck]

Wow. To all of those that voted back in the Wynne liberals. You got what you deserve. To all the students that seem to vote liberal for some reason, that tuition credit elimination is going to limit how much your parents can pay for your education ( or you, if you pay for it yourself). You got what you deserve. To all of you who thought "hey we don't pay enough to LCBO for taxes to give to Kathleen." You got what you deserve.

 

All to help pay for the fiscal mismanagement of the liberals.

 

In case you didn't figure it out, I did not vote liberal.

No way, you're one of them that won't admit it.

 

[npt1]

If you are a senior, bend over, because its going to hurt!!

ODB deductible increased by $70.00, dispensing fees also going up.

 

Other tax increases are for all Ontario residents,

If you smoke, $3.00 tax increase on a carton,

If you drink, its going to cost you more.

 

Possible Toll Lanes on QEW between Oakville and Burlington.

The list is long and painful.

Kathleen and her gang are up to no good.

Hey fellas, lighten up. The liberals are going to be good for us, provincially and federally. Now pass the joint and stop killing the vibe with all your conservative doom and gloom.

[DRIFTER_016]

Yeah, you do...you are going to be paying us like the feds have paid the maritimes for years

 

:tease:

[Old Ironmaker]

What's so funny? Drifter doesn't live here any longer. But he pays a buck each for an egg and has 15 minutes of summer to enjoy.

 

I didn't vote for Wynne but someone did. If we want good, very good paved roads to God forsaken places in this province like Rainy River someone is going to pay for it. If anyone has ever driven on thruways in places like NY that will knock the headlights out of your vehicle you wouldn't complain as much. And they have to pay a toll too! Has there been a total waste of taxes, darn right there has but you don't know how great you have it until you venture out in the world, or leave the province of Ontario at least. People tend to forget Rea Days or Mike Harris, you think it was any better then, not.

[Dara]

I didn't have a problem with Rae days, that was my wife

 

Mike was my hero

 

 

 

Kathguinty...ummmm...ya, ok

 

 

 

Wait...edit...the world ends at hwy 7 too right?

I said right from day one that she was out to destroy this province. At this rate she's going to succeed before her term is up!

[Garnet]

Just watching the news PC Leader looks like a weasel popping his head out of a hole. Seriously this is the best PC has to offer.

All those kids that got Liberal Arts degrees for free will bail out the economy

For anyone in Northern Ontario who is interested, there is another attempt at creating a Northern Ontario-specific province/political party. Take a look. (I know this change.org site is rather irritating, but it's the only place I'm aware of with the N.Ont stuff right now)

Lot's of parents might be happy, their kids will be moving out on their own soon so they can have free educations.

[Acountdeleted]

I don't remember who I voted for last provincial election (if it was liberal I'm sorry. But I think it was green).

 

I don't want to vote for anyone now. Bring on that Northern Ontario party Chad. I'll proxy vote for them.

The "Province of Northern Ontario" wouldn't be able to fund itself. As much as everyone dislikes Southern Ontario, that's where all your tax revenue comes from.

[wkrp]

This is better than reading the Toronto Sun.

Carbon cap and trade is a MAJOR tax grab. Sure, (for those of you that think that companies are "the bad guys") the nasty carbon emitters will be the ones paying, but where do you think that money will come from? The oil companies and other companies will have to pass the carbon taxes on to customers (that's all of us) or go out of business.

 

Liberal taxes in the form of carbon credits will be $1.9 BILLION next year and that INCREASES as the limits get reduced. And what are they going to spend it on? More "green" initiatives that are pushing Ontario electricity rates up vastly higher than they need to be. And the profits from those green initiatives are going to the foreign companies that own those wind and solar farms. So they are going to increase our taxes to help pay for increasing our cost of electricity yet again.

 

Gas prices will increase (estimate of 4.3 cents/litre next year alone). Some other industries will simply vanish. We won't be making steel in Ontario anymore (maybe that has happened already). You can argue that is good or bad, but the jobs will go with them. What is the "cost" of lost jobs.

 

OMG, I cannot wait to see what they have in store for us next.

 

I guess next year Kathleen will be encouraging us all to "Chill man. Go down to the LCBO and score a blunt and it will all be irie." So the naive will get their soft warm buzz and vote Liberal again next time.

 

 

Quote on the cap and trade;

 

Sousa defended increased costs from cap and trade.

"We can all of us have a choice," he said. "We can turn our back and let the low-carbon economy go by, it will cost us even more, or we can embrace it and find innovations in the system to enable us to succeed and compete."

The carbon-pricing scheme is now projected to generate $1.9 billion in revenue next year, up from $1.3 billion estimated a few months ago, based on a price of about $18 per tonne.

The cap is expected to decline 4.17 per cent each year to 2020, putting increasing pressure on industry to meet emissions targets, and, critics say, increasing costs to consumers.

Revenue from cap and trade will be dedicated to green initiatives, the government says, but the Opposition believes it will be used to fund the Liberals' political whims.

[Garnet]

You better get use to the fiberals . They will be going for a 4pit. And that's with 1 look at this Pc Leader.

[jimmer]

yep. My annual income just went down and no end in sight. At least I am supposed to save $2 a year on my $400 a month hydro bill.
