That God Is A Liberal ?
How else does one explain that every time an Ontario Election approaches we Conservatives shoot ourselves in the foot?
I say this because I do believe God’s Hand is evident in much of our history – such as Hitler’s foolish foray into Russia before he had consolidated the Western Front and Robert E. Lee’s suicidal attack on the third and final day of the Battle of Gettysburg?
Apply that to the situation to Ontario where we have experienced the worst government in our history beginning in 2003 with the election of Dalton McGuinty followed by two other victories by this same misguided man in 2007 and 2011.
And yet they continue to win.
Why so?
We continually give them the ammunition to take the focus off themselves.
First, John Tory when he came out for Faith Based School Funding when all around him were worried about Islamic Imams radicalizing their young parishioners. Dumb.
Then in 2011 Hudak proposes financial help for immigrant workers when all about him are losing their jobs. Dumb.
And now, dear Mr. Hudak wants to cancel the Rand Formula which would neuter organized labour. All the while when organized labour has been propping up McGunity and their ilk. Good going, Hudak, how to reinvigorate your foe but more importantly, you have given the Ruling Liberals something to clobber you with during the upcoming campaign. I know that you are now desperately trying to backtrack from your promise …but you are simply too late.
My question to you is who the hell is advising you?
All John Tory and now Hudak had to do was focus on the mess the Liberals have created for our once great Province.
Here is how an intelligent Leader would have handled these past and future campaigns: ‘Mr. Conservative Leader what would you do if elected Premier of Ontario?:
- I would put a stop to companies / individuals receiving upwards of .82 cents per kwh, for power we do not need and indeed are forced to pay neighbouring jurisdictions to take off our hands.
- “Anything else?” Glad you asked, I would stop giving companies 20 year contracts not to produce power?
- “More?” I would lower hydro costs to a level that both homeowners and businesses could afford, and finally,
- I would call for judicial inquiries into all the scandals the Grits have inflicted on us over their 10 year reign of terror.
Let the media put that in their collective pipes and smoke it.
And my guess is that a lot of Unions folks would be similarly appalled and just might vote for us.
But no, Hudak has to tick them off so the outcome of this Spring’s Election is now in question.
The Province simply cannot afford another Liberal Government but I can console myself in the thought that it might be too late to bail this sinking Province out in any event. Maybe the Grits deserve to get elected once again.
Having said, perhaps God has a master plan for our forlorn Ontario which we humble servants are not aware of. I despair of our politicians or even our electorate doing something creative about it.
As I see it…
‘K.D. Galagher’
