Premier Dalton McGuinty

The following is from my email files.  This email has been making the rounds via forwarding as the author asked.  This is good food for thought so I'm passing it on.  The email is not signed so I added the author unknown.  I did not modify the email in any other fashion.  The author of the email presents very valid points as to how Premier Dalton McGuinty has greatly increased the cost of living in Ontario.  If you have followed this blog you will already know my opinion of Dalton McGuinty and his greedy tax grabs.  I will certainly do my part to pass this email along!

Dalton Mcguinty

27 Billion in debt and he still has a year and a half to go.
Forward this please!

Here is what our premier has done for Ontario in the past seven years !!!!!! and this was a no tax increase election campaign.

He 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) some couples pay as much as $1,500.00 a year.
He doubled the price of most lottery tickets. (Not called a tax).
He has put an ECO tax on many containers such as paint cans and window washer fluid most people still don’t realize it is on your bill. He kept that one real quiet
He has put a disposal tax on all electronics.
He has put the disposal tax back on tires

Now don’t forget that all except the health care premium are subject to the GST and PST (taxes on taxes.)
And now he has passed the HST the largest tax on the province ever, 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.
And now we will have our S.M.A.R.T. meters that we will have to pay rent on and do our laundry in the middle of the night and we are going to pay big time for air conditioning from now on because when we need it the most that will be prime time. As if it costs any more to produce hydro at two in the afternoon or ten at night another tax grab.
Let us not forget the E health scandal with one point two 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 was after he fired the CEO and gave her a severance package of three hundred thousand dollars not bad for only having the job for seven months.
Then the windmill power plant he awards the contract to KOREA seven BILLION DOLLARS. One would think that there was some place in Canada or North America that could have built these.
He closed the emergency rooms in Port Colburne and Fort Erie because there is not enough money and there has been two deaths since because by the time they got to St.Catharines it was too late.
He awards a hospital in Toronto three million dollars 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 to one of the poorest and has created a deficit of TWENTY SEVEN BILLION DOLLARS and he still has a year and a half to go.
And don’t forget his nice little salary increase of $40,000.00 a year, millions of people in the province don’t earn half that.
All the MPP’S got 14% increases Now that they all got nice increases he comes out with a new budget and freezes all provincial employees wages for two years.

He has increased the hydro by 10% in April of 2010.
He has increased the tax on liquor and wine by 10% in May of 2010
But mister no tax McGuinty will retire with his nice comfortable pension and all his paid benefits.

I hope this gets passed around the province of Ontario and everybody will remember the way we got screwed by mister Mcguinty and the liberal party.
Not one liberal MPP had enough guts to vote against any of the above ! !

  1. As long as we all realize that the first job of a politician is to get elected;the second job of a poltician is to get elected; and the third job
    of a poltician is to get elected.Everyone else in this country will be fired laid off or flatly let go of if they decide not to carry out their promises to the Employer except the dammed politicians.Ah Canada!
    Capitalism Central at it's very finest!Criticism may not be agreeable, but it is necessary. It fulfils the same function as pain in the human body. It calls attention to an unhealthy state of things.
