A typical Star Editorial.
Much like it's Commentary after Paul Martin called the /04 election, the Star in it's vote liberal theme, is saying we should be voting for Flip, flop, McFly. On and on it goes. But the one thing it doesn't mention, is Caledonia. At all. Typical. It called broken promises "expections that were to high and impossible to keep given the sorry state of the previous Gov't. finances." On the health tax, the Star says, "bringing in the premium was the right thing to do, because it benefits all Ontarians." I say, A broken promise is a broken promise. And I'm not better off either. But you know, I wouldn't care about a deficit either, two points:
1. Mike Harris inherited an over $7 billion deficit from the previous Bob Rae
Government, yet he lowered taxes in his first budget. No health tax.
2. I personally don't think the deficit matters, because surplus of deficit, he'd still
bring in that tax. Still, broken promise.
Next, the City of Toronto Act, gives Toronto City Council more power within it's boundries. I agree with this in essence. I just don't trust David Miller with that kind of power.
On education. A hot topic. The McGuinty liberals have appointed someone (the name escapes me), to help the Toronto District School Board (TDSB), to help them bring down their deficit, so doesn't this sound a lot like what Paul Christie
was doing for the previous Ernie Eves Gov't.? What makes matters worse is, that she used to work with the TDSB so I'm wondering, who's side is she on? Anyways, I'm sorry I don't remember her name. Also, labour issues have largely been settled...across the Province. Well, not all labour issues. The Hamilton School Board (teachers) are set to walk off the job in the near future. They may or may not, but it needs to be resolved, so not every labour issue is resolved just yet. So remember, this record, Broken promises, health tax, surpluses (they're as bad as deficits), education, and so on, and so on... Remember Caledonia, and $55 million that these Ontario liberals have spent on it, and the entire liberal record.

caledonia?
you dare mention the struggle over the "sacred internet gambling" land?
beware... you forked tongue champion of the "9 to 5 job", you pony soldier of the legendary "income tax".
you have roused a sleeping giant.
yes, rise up my indian brothers.
it is time that long suffering aboriginals called on the great white father dalton mcdithery to defend them against those wiley non-native scofflaws.
alas, how could it be otherwise?
after the evil white man burned down that bridge, and vandalised a hydro transformer and then cut the main road through this town with a backhoe...
hey, wait a minute...
Dalton McGuinty, man of many words... all of them "weasel".
Upholding the law. Another broken promise.
