I have heard that if Ford likes your idea and you make a compelling case things happen. We all know the squeaky wheels are getting the grease in Ontario; especially if it has deep pockets too!

Also as much as we can argue over certain shades of blue-green being more blue or more green the Conservatives are out here trying to tell us that pure red should also be included in the discussion. We have so many good options with their own pros and cons and they’re just going for the objectively bad stuff.

Like, none of their financial policy works. The math doesn’t even add up at surface level. From buck-a-beer, to giving people a refund for plate renewals that ultimately is nothing, to deliberately misrepresenting how the carbon tax works none of it works with even the slightest bit of questioning. They just can’t stop failing no matter how many times real academics and qualified activist groups plead with them to listen.

It’s almost like making things better for the vast majority of people isn’t their goal…

It isn’t their goal to make things better for most people. Their goal is to make things better for them and their friends
