Lawrence Solomon: Ontario is headed for a fatal future and only ending the renewable deals can prevent it. Ontario was once the engine of the Canadian economy, a Triple-A-rated powerhouse commanding more than 40 per cent of the country’s GDP. Today this once-proud place is a have-not province whose credit rating is near the bottom of the pack, a loser that collects subsidies from the rest of the country.
Ontario lost its lustrous Triple-A credit rating when Ontario Hydro went out of control, ending the province’s low-price advantage, making industry uncompetitive and sinking the province in a morass of debt.
I think that ship just happens to be the leader of a convoy. I doubt that HMCS Alberta is far behind.
