Is anyone really surprised with the Drummond Report? We here at The Parkdale Party certainly are not. Mr. McGuinty’s transformation of our economy from one of manufacturing to one of services is just about complete. Criticising with 20/20 hindsight is easy but the damage to our economy has been done and the folly of the Liberal Party’s policies have been painfully exposed. So, where do we go from here? As tough to digest as The Drummond Report is it is our opinion that, aside from the obvious cuts in spending that have been identified, there really is no job creation plan. So let’s move forward. What would The Parkdale Party do to create jobs? [Read more...]
Ontario, dear Ontario, where are we heading? (Part 1)
