    Just talked to a friend who's a member of the BC Lieberal party and Gordo ain't gonna make it to the next election.

    If what he says is true, the rank and file have decided to get rid of Gordo no matter what, give the Party a name change, likely by amalgamating with the BC Conservatives and then try to find someone from the boonies who had nothing to do with the HST, BC Rail or Gordo and his gang of four, thereby hoping that the voters in BC will forgive them. ROTFL ROTFL ROTFL ROTFL

    Strange thing is that at no time in the discussion did removing the HST ever come up.

    PLEASE READ, PASS ON AND REMEMBER NEXT ELECTION. THIS IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT:

    This email has been going around my work place.
    Here is what our Premier has done for Ontario in the past seven years.
    Remember...he had a no tax increaseelection message/campaign.
    He has increased all the licensing fees from your car to your boat including fishing and hunting.
    He introduced the health care premium (not called a tax) and some couples pay as much as $1,500.00 a year.

    He has put an ECO tax on many containers such as paint cans and window washer fluid most and people still don�t realize it until they see the bill - he kept that one real quiet.
    He put a disposal tax on all electronics.
    He put the disposal tax back on tires.
    And now he has passed the HST tax - the largest tax on the province ever and the only other tax in Ontario that ever came close to this in the past was the health care premium. He passed this bill even though 76% of the people in Ontario were against it.
    This HST will provide the Province with an additional THREE BILLION dollars a year.
    Soon, July 15th, we will all have our S.M.A.R.T. Meters on which we will have to pay perpetual rent and will end up doing our laundry in the middle of the night. We are also going to pay big time for air conditioning from now on because when we need it the most it will be in the prime time of usage.
    Let us not forget the E-health scandal with 1.2 billion dollars wasted and paid out to friends and relatives. What was Mr. McGuinty's answer to this? � Well, if the people of Ontario don't like it, they can show it in the next election.� Nice attitude. This after he fired the CEO and then gave her a severance package of $300,000 - not bad for only being on the job for seven months.
    And what about the SEVEN BILLION DOLLARS windmill power plant contract that he awarded to KOREA ? One would think there was some place in Canada or North America that could have built these.
    He also closed the emergency rooms in Port Colburne and Fort Erie because there is not enough money. There have been two deaths since then because by the time they got to St. Catharine's it was too late.
    But he then awards a hospital in Toronto three million dollars - of course, that was in the riding where there just happens to be a by-election to replace George Smitherman!
    He has taken the richest most prosperous province in Canada down to one of the 'Have-Nots' and, over the past six & one half years, has increased the budget deficit from $5.6 Billion dollars to TWENTY SEVEN BILLION DOLLARS and he still has a year and a half to go.
    And don�t forget his nice little salaryincrease of $40,000.00 a year - millions of people in the province don�t earn even half of that.
    Have we forgotten all the MPP�S who also got a 14% increase? And now that they've had their increases he comes out with a new budget to freeze all provincial employees wages for two years - a bit late don't you think.
    He increased the hydro tax by 10% in April of 2010.
    He has increased the tax on liquor and wine by 10% in May of 2010.
    He continues to permantently 'Blight' landscapes across the province with unsightly wind turbines.

    But, Mr. McGuinty will retire with his nice comfortable pension and all his benefits paid.
    I hope this gets passed around the province of Ontario and everybody remembers the way we got screwed by Mr. McGuinty and the Liberal party and - remember - not one Liberal MPP had enough guts to vote against any of the above. Wake up Ontario ....!!






    And all pensioners got no raise at all over the past 18 months!!!!!!!!!

    He should do quite well in the "real" corporate environment since from all accounts he's been running this province as a CEO and not a Premier.
