It would seem the Harris revolution in Ontario is over. Delayed tax cuts(read that as it will never happen) and increased taxes on cigarettes(those poor old smoking sinners!)
Alberta did the same think earlier plus a little bit on booze. Ralph Klein out and out lied to the people of Alberta and I guess you could say so did Ernie Eaves to Ontario.
Now why are these men liars? Because they needed extra money. For what? Those old bottomless pits...health care and education! Now it is all fine and dandy that the kiddies get a good education and you can get into see the doctor but where does it all end? In Alberta education and health care eat up over half of the provincial budget. The doctors and teachers are pleading poverty and it looks like no end in site to the increases! In another few years will there be any money for anything else? You can't just keep raising the taxes! Eventually people will just quit working or go underground. This is exactly what happened in the Soviet Union that brought about its downfall.And maybe that would be a good thing for Canada? Then we might have some meaningful change?
So I'm going to vote NDP in the next election because I figure they will get us there even faster than the Liberals or Conservatives!
