CALORIE LEGISLATION IN ONTARIO

Ontario Health Minister Deb Matthews, with the support of the NDP(again), is introducing legislation that will force restaurants to show how many calories there are in each of their meals. It's interesting that none of the big food chains aren't complaining. With their wealth and power they could easily stop all these regulations behind closed doors. So why don't they? The fact is that the more regulations there are, the less chance smaller businesses have to stay in business. The big guys just pass the extra cost on to the customer. The small business just can't afford to pay the high rents, wage increases, energy prices and endless regulation costs. In rural areas the big food and big box stores drive up taxes and rental space so much that small businesses don't have a chance. The progressive liberals must have some good friends in big business to be helping them so much. The NDP just love everything to be controlled and regulated by big government.

We all lose when the liberal-minded lead

WE KNOW we've reached the bottom of the barrel when we start questioning what gender we are. It must come after we've lost all the virtues of integrity or character we may have had. Not surprisingly, a woman who lost her gender identity, wants our school children to doubt the gender they were born with starting in grade one. Ont. Education Minister, Kathleen Wynne forced her equality/inclusive/homosexual program into the public/Catholic school curriculum last year. With no shame, she is running to be our next liberal premier in Ont. and she has a good chance of being elected by Toronto liberals. As usual, our rural votes don't count. By some strange irony our education elites, who control our school curriculum's, are some of the most stupid people on earth. For example: In the 1980's they got rid of the abstinence-based sex education program with an aggressive contraception-based sex ed. program. The result was more promiscuity, pregnancies and abortions because instead of discouraging pre-marital sex, they encouraged it. In the 1990's the geniuses in our education ministry decided that too many boys were getting higher marks than girls so they created the 'Equity' program which essentially dumbed-down the whole education program and resulted in boys falling behind because there was no more challenge for them in schools. It got so bad that they made it a rule to never fail a student. Colleges are only too happy to take parents money even though they know the students mostly fail and drop out of college. Now the education ministry wants your kids to doubt their gender and try homosexuality. We have sick stupid people running our education programs and throughout it all the only sound of discontent we hear from teachers is when they protest for more money. We need education reform. We need our local municipalities, elected by local people, to make all the decisions about education content and funding; not some gender-bender in Toronto. One size fits all just doesn't work anymore. *The suggestion that the government is the fountain of knowledge and education for people is wrong-headed. The thirst for knowledge is the engine that drives education and it's parents who provide the funds. The government is simply another tool for us to use to see that the job gets done. The government has no more authority over knowledge than it has over hope, goodness or love. To allow the government to claim authority over moral knowledge; the knowledge of right and wrong, reduces morality to politics. In so much as they think they are, government is not God.* Our rural municipalities have to start demanding better efficiency and accountability from the school system that eats up half of our taxes. * With notes from Dr. Jeff Mirus, Divinizing the State: A Blind and Dangerous Pedagogy.

By Their Silence

“By Their Silence” This Sept. McGuinty's liberal education curriculum will begin teaching children, in public and Catholic schools, that they may choose their gender even if it is different from their birth anatomy and to heck with what their parents say. They will also be encouraged to respect any homosexual feelings they may have and learn that it is no different than heterosexual sex, no matter what their parents values are. They will be told they can start gay clubs in their schools.They will be told not to tell their parents anything they have learned. The already too detailed sex education program, which starts in grade one, will expand to include homosexual sex. It will force students to be taught how to have sex with a fellow student of the same sex. The McGuinty government, probably working with the teachers union, decided to put a long overdue wage freeze on teachers salaries. The liberal media was more than happy to keep this news in the spotlight thus diverting attention away from the new homosexual curriculum. McGuinty is portrayed as a firm leader trying to control teachers, out of control salaries while he gets parents hoping that teachers will be back in school next month and forgetting the corrupt curriculum. The NDP are overjoyed with the new curriculum. · By their silence, the PC party lets it all pass. · By their silence, the Inst. of Catholic Education gives it a pass. · By their silence, the Trustees Assoc. gave it a pass. · By their silence, School Boards give it a pass. · By their silence, the Bishops give it a pass. · By their silence, parents are giving it a pass. · By their silence in church, priests and ministers are giving it a pass. One of the most disturbing pieces of legislation that will indoctrinate our youth and attack Christian values has invaded our schools. The silence is overwhelming.

Human Achievement Hour

It's that time of year again when all the enviro-nuts blossom and ask(so far) that everyone turn their lights out for one hour on Mar.31st so everyone can be in the same dark fog as them.
SunTV has a better idea and one that I've been doing for years. Celebrate Human Achievement Hour instead by turning all your inside and outside lights on from 8:30 to 9:30 Pm on Mar.31st.
Show everyone that you like to live in the light and that human achievement won't be put aside for negative people who live off enviro-welfare schemes.
Celebrate man's achievement of light over darkness.

CBC welfare cheque must end.

It's time to cut off the $1.1 billion annual welfare cheque to the biased state broadcaster CBC.


Acclaimed author Bruce Bawer has just written about "This Hour Could Have 10,000 Minutes: The Biases of the CBC" for FrontPage Magazine.

The only thing worse than having the biases of the mainstream media inflicted upon you on a daily basis is having to subsidize it. For Americans, to be sure, the rip-off isn't so terrible: the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which funds PBS and NPR, gets $430 million a year from the federal government, which comes to only a couple of bucks per household. In Britain, by contrast, the BBC license fee is now £145.50 ($226) annually per TV-owning family. And in Canada, the CBC receives more than $1.5 billion a year from the Canadian government, which amounts to upwards of $100 per household.



And what, exactly, are Canadian taxpayers paying for? That's the question asked - and very illuminatingly answered - by a new documentary, This Hour Could Have 10,000 Minutes: The Biases of the CBC, producedby James Cohen and Fred Litwin. (The title is a reference to "This Hour Has 22 Minutes," a long-running CBC series specializing in political satire.) Focusing on two main topics - anti-Israel bias and anti-conservative bias - the documentary consists almost entirely of CBC clips (most but not all of them from news programs) in which we can see these biases in action. To judge by this compilation, the CBC is perhaps even more slanted than the infamously partial BBC - and, perhaps, even more brazen about it.



Take the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. In the documentary we see excerpts from a CBC report on the second Gaza "Freedom Flotilla" that consists entirely of interviews with flotilla participants - all of whom represent it as a virtuous and innocuous aid mission and condemn Israel's actions against the previous flotilla as absolutely unjustified. At no point does the CBC provide even a brief reminder that there is, in fact, another side to the story. (As the documentary asks: "Is this reporting? Or stenography?")



[Please read the whole article..]





See how fast CBC gobbles tax dollars:
http://www.proudtobecanadian.ca/index/cbc/waste-o-meter/

We don't need CBC bias anymore.

Here are some reasons to sell the CBC:

1- The $1.1 Billion+ per year could better be spent on Health care or other programs. It could also be used to pay down our debt. We've seen what debt can do in Greece. People are losing their jobs and other important services. That's what debt does. The CBC is adding to our debt problems. Besides, CBC pays huge amounts of money to its executives and wines and dines them around the world at our expense. Other Canadian TV stations don't have that kind of cash flow to waste away.

2- The CBC doesn't just show Canadian content anymore. They have many American programs like Jeopardy. So what's the point?

3- All Canadians now have access to Satellite TV. So Every Canadian can now get any other Canadian TV station they so choose. Therefore CBC has outlived its original mandate. A private owner of CBC would have to run the business like any other Canadian TV station. The only difference is that they may not be able to have the big parties, big salaries and too many employees at our expense anymore. So what's so unfair about that?

4- CBC is clearly biased content favoring the liberal-minded viewpoint.

If you agree go to this website and vote to sell the CBC.

Think small, save BIG

Almost every country is in debt up to their eyeballs because their liberal-minded leaders all poured taxpayers money into big union jobs and benefits. When's the last time you heard of a serious public sector strike?
You won't here of one because the greedy masters keep feeding the other pigs at the trough.
Mark Steyn said it best, "Small, local and accountable government."
We need to bring the power base back to our local communities where we can keep a handle on the spending.

Giving Us The Gas

I bought 30 ltr. of gas at $1.31 per ltr. the other day. The $40. 00 receipt showed the following:

Excise tax---- $3.06
Road tax------- $4.49
HST ------------- $4.60

Total tax-------- $12.15 which includes a tax on tax.

If they can't pay off the national debt and buy everyone a new car, in one year, with these kind of profits, they don't deserve to govern the next year. Even a stupid woman like Oprah manages to pay her debts and buy her voters a new car.

The End of Catholic Education.

Fr. Alphonse de Valk, editor of Catholic Insight magazine, says that an April 15th memo from the Assembly of Catholic Bishops of Ontario (ACBO) is effectively a “green light” to start gay clubs in the Catholic schools.

And he's right.

Catholic education has been heading downhill for years thanks to the ICE and Canadian Conference of Bishop's decision to bow to the province and start a sex education program that would please liberal minded provincial governments, school boards and unions but destroy a parents right to educate their own children about sex at the appropriate time.

Thanks to that bad decision we now have radical gays and lesbians demanding 'equality' in sex education and, once again, our school boards and Catholic Bishops have opened the door for bullying of our Catholic faith.

The bottom line is that it finally spells the end of Catholic education without even a fight from those we entrust to safeguard our children.

What good are school boards anymore?

You can always tell when an institution or government ministry is making too much money. Actually, you don't have to guess because they all have their hands deep in the taxpayer's pockets.
You can also tell because you will rarely find any individuals willing to disagree with ' the program'. Programs like sex 'education' in the public and Catholic school system that has now expanded to include homosexuality indoctrination. You would think at least one person would care more about our next generation instead of their next fat paycheque.
But they're not alone. Included are parents who let them get away with it by ignoring their kids and what they're learning in school. Parents who trust our governments and institutions trust a fool.
The liberal-minded have been running our school boards for too long. It's long overdue to scrub school boards that only serve their provincial masters and give control of our schools back to the municipalities.

Smart Meters not too bright

Something interesting has happened.

Although not well publicised, a Supreme Court decision has exposed a weakness in McGuinty's Smart Meters.
Recently the Supreme Court of Canada ruled that Calgary police had the right to collect details of any customers electricity use to determine if they were growing marijuana. They don't need a search warrant any more.
However, as one of the dissenting judges said, "it is an incremental but ominous step toward the erosion of the right to privacy." They continued to say that a reasonable person wouldn't expect details of electronic use which can detect when a person goes to bed, does chores, etc. to be handed over to another party.
The police had used a 'digital recording ammeter' (DRA) to get a detailed printout of power consumption in a home.
As it turns out a DRA is a smart meter, which has been installed on millions of homes in McGuinty's Ontario.
The Ontario privacy commissioner warned that 'privacy is the smart grid's sleeper issue' because they can reveal a lot about a person's lifestyle, from the time they turn their lights on in the morning until they turn them off at night.

As much as we want to get rid of the handful of marijuana growers, is it worth this invasion of our privacy? More importantly, what was the real motivation of the liberal government by installing these expensive 'smart meters'?
We surely didn't need them and they are clearly another invasion of our privacy.

Enviro-mental fees

Fed up yet? Do something about it.

The Ontario McGuinty government put a recycling and environmental fee on most electronics, cleaning products and other merchandise this year. He temporarily dropped the recycling fee because of public pressure. Some businesses hide the fees in the product.
Our houses look like garbage dumps on the inside and animals tear apart our waste on the outside. We already pay for recycling, multi-million dollar dumps and garbage disposal. Why should we pay twice?? Plus tax!!
Are you fed up yet?
There are three simple things you can do to stop this raid on your wallet:

1- Copy the following letter or make your own and give it to any business you deal with.

2- Don't buy these products unless you really need to.

3- Pass this email on to anyone, anywhere you can.

Rest assured the businesses won't sit on their hands while their sales drop. We need them to put pressure on the government. Put the internet to work for you and watch the results.




To: Staples, Wal-Mart, The Source, Zellers, The Bay, Home Depot and all other businesses.

Dear Manager/Owner,

The Ontario government added a recycle & environmental fee to the price of your merchandise this year and you passed it and the HST on to us consumers. After public pressure, Premier McGuinty temporarily dropped the recycle fee but he still demands the environmental fee.
As consumers, who have to earn our money, we are fed up. We already pay for recycling, multi-million dollar waste stations, garbage disposal and our houses all look like garbage dumps, inside and out, while we try to appease the garbage police.
We know it's not your fault but from now on my family, friends and neighbours will not be buying any products from you that have these fees. Even if you hide the fees we will know which products have them.
This email/letter is being sent all across Ontario by taxpayers like us. We are fed up!

Your signature, address and phone number.

Pass it on!

Cowboy days and upright ways.

What went wrong?

Most of the western novels written before 1970 have no porn or swearing and the guy that had a high moral code always won the battles. Remember when TV was like that?
I was just reading a western about a cowboy who was walking through a lonely mining camp, operated mostly, by men. He described what he saw; " There were, of course, many dogs running loose in the camp and he supposed that the workers, womanless and without families, picked up a dog as a substitute for the affection of humans."
I don't know if it was me or because I had read so many sick emails about the way our society is today but I had to read that sentence again until the truth came to me. This was written at a time when homosexuality and bestiality were as foreign as women wearing men's clothing.
It's a testament against our times that if that same sentence were written in a book today, we would know they were talking about sex with dogs instead of the natural affection we all need in our lives which the author meant it to mean.
How far down we have come.

We Need To Stop Feeding These Lazy Feminists.

Canada's debt is $500 Billion! Why do we continue to pay for liberal agendas?

Women’s Shelters are found throughout Canada. There are an estimated 550 of them across the land and they are represented in every province and territory.

Canada’s Budget to keep these shelters operational is $377 million annually (Stascan 2005-2006)

In 2008 the percentage of abused women reporting domestic violence by male partner = 8%

In 2008 percentage of abused men reporting domestic violence by female partner =7 %

Number of Shelters for abused Men in Canada = 1 (privately run. In Alberta)

Canada’s budget for men’s shelters = $ 0

TD bank wastes your money.

To The Toronto Dominion (TD) Bank:
Toronto-Dominion Centre

It is beyond my understanding how a major Canadian institution like the TD Bank can give financial support to the public display of nudity and sexual acts performed on the streets of Toronto during the 'Gay parade.'
Only a sick mind would think that encouraging drug use, promiscuity and a deadly form of sexual narcissism is a project worth supporting.
I can speak for my family and friends to say that we will not be using the TD Bank services in the future but we hope you and your children enjoy the porn. you promote.



Hello,

Thank you for your inquiry.

Pride Toronto, particularly the annual Pride Parade, has played and continues to play an important, some might say historic, role in raising awareness of and creating visibility for the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) community. In the five years that TD has been a sponsor of Pride Week activities including the Parade, we have at times, been criticized for our involvement and support of such an event.

Our rationale for our sponsorship has not changed: to promote and celebrate diversity in communities where our valued customers, clients and employees live and work.

We have seen Pride Toronto deal with its share of controversy. Pride's roots are, of course, political. The most recent example of which you are aware: pressure to exclude certain LGBT activist political groups from participating in the Pride Parade, and pressure to protect freedom of expression and allow the participation of any and all LGBT groups.

This is not the first time that TD has been asked as a sponsor to withdraw, or threaten to withdraw our support from Pride Toronto. We have chosen not to withdraw our support and also not to dictate the terms of that support. We recognize that this is a very sensitive issue with strongly held and opposing views within and beyond the LGBT community.

We have confidence in Pride Toronto and in the broader LGBT community that both groups will find a way to move forward on this issue, as they have on other sensitive issues in the past.

We hope this information is helpful. Please contact us again with any additional questions you may have.

Regards,

Rebecca

The End of Catholic Education

Equity Training for Ontario Catholic Boards: Homosexuality ‘Normal’, ‘Natural’


By Patrick B. Craine

TORONTO, Ontario, June 29, 2010 (LifeSiteNews.com) – The majority of Ontario’s Catholic education establishment has backed the Ontario Ministry of Education’s equity and inclusive education strategy, even where it mandates “equity” based on sexual orientation, on the basis that the Catholic Church has always emphasized equity and inclusivity.

But as the Catholic boards prepare to implement their new “equity” policies this fall, it would appear that they are not only being trained to welcome homosexual people, but also to endorse homosexual behavior. As a LifeSiteNews analysis of the equity strategy published today explains, one of the key “equity” experts being brought into Catholic boards is actually teaching that equity involves accepting the homosexual lifestyle itself.

Chris D’Souza, former Equity and Diversity Officer of the Dufferin-Peel Catholic School Board, travels the province promoting equity in schools, and has given over 1400 workshops on this topic in the last eight years. He leads the Equity Summit Group and served as a member of the ministry’s ad hoc committee for developing the equity strategy.

An educator for 17 years, he has given his presentations in over a dozen Catholic boards across the province.

In one such presentation, D’Souza defines “heterosexism” - which he says must be eliminated - as “the assumption that everyone is or should be heterosexual and that heterosexuality is the only normal, natural sexual orientation.” That presentation can be found on the Ottawa Catholic school board’s website.

The Catechism of the Catholic Church, on the other hand, calls homosexual inclinations “objectively disordered,” and calls those with such tendencies to chastity. Homosexual acts, the Catechism states further, are “acts of grave depravity,” and “under no circumstances can they be approved” (2357-2359).

In the same presentation, D’Souza urges teachers to stay on top of the most current “politically correct” language. “As Educators, You have a moral obligation to engage in politically correct and inclusive language in EVERY conversation you are a part of,” he insists. In this vein, he explains the acronym LGBTQQIAA, listing and defining the appropriate word for each form of homosexuality or homosexualism.

As part of the equity strategy, the ministry is requiring all boards, Catholic and public, to explicitly endorse the Ontario Human Rights Code and revise all board practices in accordance with it. Pro-family groups and individuals have objected, however, because the Code recognizes “sexual orientation” as a ground for non-discrimination, which they say will lead to the outright normalization of homosexual behavior.

Many are also concerned by the fact that in January a spokesperson for the ministry refused to state whether Catholic schools would continue to be able to teach the Catholic beliefs on homosexuality as laid out in the Catechism. This despite the fact that the new strategy was developed in conjunction with the Catholic constituency, including the Ontario bishops’ own Institute for Catholic Education.

Today's LSN analysis emphasizes that the homosexualist movement, which is agressively pushing the "equity" policies, “is not at all about tolerance and as the old adage puts it, to simply ‘live and let live.’” Instead, the movement is “intolerant, inequitable and un-inclusive. … It is an aggressive, radical propagandist machine … that is forcing its agenda into the sanctity of everyone’s home, into the youngest of children’s classrooms and now even into your Church, Synagogue and Mosque.”

This is the final result of too many liberals in our Catholic school system for too many years.

Your Home Is Their Castle

Big Brother Makes His Move

We live in strange times with contrary leadership. Most of us pay our taxes, directly or indirectly, to our municipalities to maintain reasonable services so we can have the freedom to enjoy the privacy and protection of our property rights. Our military veterans fought and died to protect them. Some people want to take that away.
As if it wasn’t bad enough for the provincial liberals to invade our wallets continually with user fees, environmental fees and punishing taxes, now they want to allow strangers to invade our homes and some townships are actually helping them.
The township of Petawawa council is about to pass a bylaw that would allow municipal employees to enter our homes under the feeble excuse of “upholding employee’s right to do their job...” I’m sure most of the townships employees are honest and upright so this back-door bylaw complaint isn’t against them.
If you think this piece of legislation is going to be restricted to building and fire inspections you haven’t been paying attention to the direction of liberal politics these past years. Guess who’ll be coming next year to inspect your trees, water, pets and anything else they want to ‘regulate’
In Renfrew County we’ve been hammered continuously with business and property regulations by provincial dictators and this single piece of legislation, which opens the doors to all sorts of abuse, is another example of the tyrants of Toronto’s Queens Park liberal agenda. How any rural municipality could even consider it is very telling to which side of the tracks they stand. This isn’t about complying with provincial legislation. It’s about rolling over and playing dead instead of protecting our rural rights.
The municipal elections are coming up this October so it might be a good time now to find out, once and for all, where your own council plants its feet. Our municipalities need to stand together and send the message to Queens Park that This Land Is Our Land- Back Off Government.

Militant homosexual agenda in schools

'Militant' gay agenda seen in new sex course
Plans On Hold; Conservative Christians call for student boycott

Charles Lewis, National Post; With Files From Canwest News Service

Getty Images Files
The social conservative leaders who led the charge against Ontario's now-postponed overhaul of the province's sex-education curriculum were among many who had complaints about the explicit nature of some of the subject matter, and the young age of some of the children who would be taught it.

But the leaders went a lot further with their concerns, charging the reforms were part of a larger political agenda to make homosexuality more acceptable to society and to influence young children to "practise" homosexuality.

Charles McVety and Brian Rushfeldt, both representing conservative Christian groups, raised warnings this week about Ontario's new Health and Physical Education Curriculum for Grades 1-8, saying it would corrupt children and society. They were calling for a one-day boycott of students and a massive demonstration at Queen's Park.

But yesterday, Dalton Mc-Gunity, the Ontario Premier, said he was putting the plan on hold for further study.

The new plan, which would have come into effect in September, would have introduced discussions about gender identity and same-sex relationships in Grade 3, masturbation in Grade 6 and the dangers of oral, vaginal and anal sex in Grade 7, as well as descriptions of safe-sex practices.

Mr. McVety, president of Canada Christian College in Toronto, said the curriculum must be seen in the larger context of liberal social engineering. "It's not about this curriculum, it's about changing the culture in our schools, Mr. McVety said. "We warned the country about this when same-sex marriage came in. We changed the laws in this country, redefined marriage, the end result now this is coming into our classrooms.

"This is part of a militant homosexual agenda to normalize homosexuality in everyone's mind and thereby promote homosexuality. If we teach our children these things ... guess what? That's what they'll practice."

A number of religious groups -- from Catholics to evangelical Christians -- have also raised concerns about the new curriculum, though few have been as vocal as Mr. Mc-Vety and Mr. Rushfeldt in suggesting it would bring social corruption.

"This was an attempt to shape society and young minds," said Mr. Rushfeldt, of the Calgary-based Canada Family Action Coalition. "And to shift society away from the concept of male-female and husband-wife. They want to make society believe that two men and two women having sex is normal."

Mr. Rushfeldt and others also pointed out that introducing "gender identity" -- the idea that someone look like one sex on the outside but feel like the opposite sex -- would create confusion and anxiety in young children. But Mr. Rushfeldt believed there was an additional agenda of indoctrination.

"They're trying to ingrain in children a concept that society has never accepted before and that's why they're looking to children. Clearly they are trying to teach children so they can shape them at a young age."

However, a spokesman for the Ministry of Education said this week that the subject of gender identity was simply a way to help students understand the world around them.

"This is not a how-to," Michelle Despault said. "This is not teaching kids a way of being. This is teaching kids information they need to know for their health and well-being. So the expectation is to understand differences and what makes different people unique.

"Some of those differences in our society are around sexual orientation."

Questions about the teaching of homosexuality in classroomsareparticularly sensitive in Catholic schools, and there was controversy this week over whether they would have had to follow the new plan.

Mr. McGuinty said that Catholic schools in Ontario would have had to follow the new curriculum as written. However, the Ontario Association of Catholic Bishops stated that Catholic schools have the constitutional right to rewrite any policy that goes against Catholic teaching. That idea was also confirmed by a spokesman for the Ministry of Education earlier in the week.

Sister Joan Cronin, of the Institute for Catholic Education, which helps shape Catholic teaching across the province, said Catholic schools already have a teaching on homosexuality, which is taught in Grade 8.

The Catholic Catechism does teach that homosexual behaviour is "objectively disordered" but she said that concept is too complex to be introduced to students.

"What we say is that every person, gay or straight, is created in the image of God and deserves respect. But while the Church supports gay people it does not support homosexual acts or lifestyles."

She did not believe that the province had an agenda or ulterior motives for presenting the new curriculum.

"I have great regard for the educators at the Ministry of Education. I would say from their point of view they would have widely researched the topics and received vast research before they would design that program. The would have done it with the best research available."

Give us a break Sr.Cronin. They knew exactly what they were doing with the best homosexual propaganda available.
We need to take a good hard look at the Inst. for Catholic Education and the liberal board that serves it.

Tax Glutton Liberals

Tax Glutton Liberals



The elderly lady was walking in the park when she sat down on the bench beside a man wearing an army uniform. His legs were twitching up and down continually so she asked him what had happened to him. He said his nerves were injured while serving in the army. She gave him her sympathy and walked on when she saw another man in an air force uniform and he was shaking his head back and forth while frothing at the mouth. She sat beside him and asked what had happened to him. He said that he got injured while serving in the air force. Finally she walked on and came upon a man in a navy uniform who was shaking his arm and hand vigorously. Right away she asked him, “Did you get that in the navy young man?” ‘No” he answered, “I got it in my nose and I can’t get the darn thing off my finger!”
That’s the way most rural people feel about the McGuinty liberals who keep getting elected by big cities, union employees, city journalists and special interest elitists. We just can’t seem to shake their dictating policies and taxes off of us.
Hydro just announced another rate increase. While we’ve all been paying for the huge hydro debt, McGuinty went shopping and borrowed another billion dollars to pay for his unneeded ‘Smart Meters’. He’s pouring our money into Green Energy which costs more to produce that it’s worth while he creates more useless, high paying, green jobs for his friends. With the beginning of his ‘Time-of-Use’ power prices and HST this summer, we will all be paying much more for our hydro and heating fuel. And it doesn’t stop there.
McGuinty’s liberals have added ‘environmental levees’ to many of our consumer items. Whenever you purchase any oil products, you pay a levy (plus tax) and you pay a $5.00 disposal levy (plus tax) when you get an oil change on your vehicle. If you can afford it, that big screen TV is going to have a $50.00 levy (plus tax) and eventually all our consumer items will have this green levy (plus tax). Lets not mention the continual user fees he adds for services.
This tax glut, at our expense, will set up the liberals for the next election when they can promise all the unions easy settlements and greeners all the money they want to invade rural people with more environmental and species at risk laws and fines.
Provincially and federally the liberals are finished in most rural areas mostly because they only speak to the cities and punish the rural. The wide gap between the well off and the poor here is displayed by who’s licking McGuinty’s pink slippers and who isn’t.
The challenge now is for the provincial conservatives to create fiscal and social policies that reflect real conservative values because right now there’s almost no difference between the red and blue. Better yet, create a new party like the Family Coalition Party with real family values.
The only environmental problem rural Ontario has is the green fog that hovers over Toronto politics and I can’t see anything changing until people get off their butts and demand a change from the people they hire in government.
