INDIGNANT BLUSTER AND BOMBAST...

... same ol' same old.
Tim Hudak has a new plan.
And the Ontario mega-bureaucracy is cowering in fear, no doubt (sarc).
Will he repeal the Endangered Species Act? The Greenbelt Act? The Provincial Policy Statement on Land Use? The Clean Water Act? The Green Energy Act? Will he abolish Conservation Authorities, carve up Ontario Hydro or scale back the MNR and MOE? Nope. Nothing consequential. Nothing but claptrap.
Call back, Ontario PCs, when you've got someone or something of merit.

THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY OF CANADA - A COAT OF MANY COLOURS

First it was their support for Stinking Twisty Bulbs (strike one)

Now it's "weather and climate change linked" (strike two)

Time to let them know what the consequences are going to be.

THE DAMAGE IS DONE AND THE OTTAWA CITIZEN CLUES IN AT LAST

Timeline:
2003: Lanark Landowners Association is founded to defend embattled rural businesses in Eastern Ontario
2004: Rural Ontario Landowners demonstrate on Parliament Hill to decry debilitating bureaucracies
2005: Rural Ontario Landowners demonstrate at Queens Park to protest big government policies that kill rural economic viability
2009: The Green Energy Act (and its FIT program) is introduced to the Ontario Legislature, and is quickly rammed through by a majority Liberal government
2014: Kelly Egan writes a story about the collapse of rural Ontario businesses, curling rinks and churches.
Hmmm. That Ottawa Citizen...if you cup your ear, you can hear the baying of the news hounds on the scent!

LIBERAL ECONOMICS vs VENESECTION THERAPY

From "The History of Bloodletting", we learn how people were killed by learned physicians:
"Being ill meant having an imbalance of the four humors. Therefore treatment consisted of removing an amount of the excessive humor by various means such as bloodletting, purging, catharsis, diuresis, and so on. By the 1st century bloodletting was already a common treatment, but when Galen of Pergamum (129–200 AD) declared blood as the most dominant humor, the practice of venesection gained even greater importance."
...
And from "Economics according to Premier Kathleen Wynne", we learn how to cure an ailing Province by increasing taxation to build a bigger government:
Ms. Wynne repeated the theme of the Fall Economic Statement, telling the National Post that while she expects to remain on target to balance the budget by 2017-18, if economic conditions are such that “those interim targets are going to be difficult for us to hit as we make investments that are going to make the economy grow, we are not going to stay on course.”


"Run Forest, Run!!!"

SUPREME COURT STRIKES DOWN PROSTITUTION LAWS

A thought for our Justice Minister: Just declare the work zones Endangered Species Habitat – then she’ll have to pay taxes, but won’t be able to use it.

 

Justice Minister Peter MacKay said the government is reviewing the decision and "exploring all possible options to ensure the criminal law continues to address the significant harms that flow from prostitution to communities, those engaged in prostitution, and vulnerable persons."

MORE SCANDAL FOR THE ONTARIO LIBERALS: HAD ENOUGH YET TORONTO?

Toronto elects Liberals; Liberals ruin the economy and raise the cost of living/doing business.
Thanks Toronto!
Signed,
Rural Ontario
Let's check the news....
Kellogg Plant Closes
Heinz Plant Closes too
Public Service Fat Cats are doing extremely well
But don't worry, windmills and solar panels will make it all OK
Just another day of great news in the Nanny State eh?

EPA: FRIEND OR FOE OF THE FARMER?

"We at EPA really want to partner with them (farmers/landowners) to get to the common goals we all share: cleaner air, cleaner water, cleaner land..."

http://www.agweb.com/article/epa_friend_or_foe_of_the_farmer_NAA_Tyne_Morgan/

Nothing quite like a "partner" who takes your property rights by force of statutory law and regulation, and then threatens you with jail if you don't like it.

Thank goodness there will be a "comment period" prior to the taking.


Sounds just like here in Ontario!

GAIN A TURBINE - LOSE YOUR LAND. SOLAR PANELERS BEWARE

"Wind companies operating in Ontario are frequently owned outside Canada, and are not interested in “saving the planet for our grandchildren” or “curing climate change” as those weary clichés would have you believe. Rather, they’re only after the biggest possible profits guaranteed over a period of from 21 to 40 years by our provincial government using the proceeds of Ontario residents’ constantly increasing hydro bills and taxes."

SO THE GUN REGISTRY IS DESTROYED EH?

How did this joker get the gun registry data? http://blogs.montrealgazette.com/2013/11/28/the-canadian-gun-registry-a-portrait-of-montreal/

MOVE ALONG FOLKS. NOTHING TO SEE HERE...

CBC wants us to believe that most of the High River gun theft scandal was actually folks just wanting their guns safely stored at RCMP HQ:  http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/rcmp-felt-political-pressure-over-alberta-flood-gun-seizures-1.2442859
