Comments for Ontario Liberal Party is a Disgrace http://ontarioliberalparty.wordpress.com Politics in Ontario and Cananda Sat, 11 Oct 2008 13:44:51 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=MU hourly 1 Comment on Spraying Chemicals on the Citizens of Ontario by janice http://ontarioliberalparty.wordpress.com/2008/05/12/spraying-chemicals-on-the-citizens-of-ontario/#comment-53 janice Thu, 07 Aug 2008 13:47:56 +0000 http://ontarioliberalparty.wordpress.com/?p=15#comment-53 I noticed they were spraying over shelburne, ontario on the 4th, (monday) of august. I got some pictures before my batteries gave out. There were more than a dozen and we don't get much air traffic here so they stood out easily. It went on most of the day. It makes me wonder about what the true purpose of that new air traffic beacon is over in masonville. Keep an eye on the skies people. Call the ptb to account. You have to realize that this is probably only the beginning. When the bottom falls out in the states it will begin a domino effect and unless we can remove some of those dominoes we're in for a fall. Wake up! Store some food. Take care of each other. Learn to live by giving rather than taking. A new paridigm is on the horizon. God be with us all... I noticed they were spraying over shelburne, ontario on the 4th, (monday) of august.

And there are those who support Premier Dalton who says kids shouldn’t be segregated because they can’t fit into society while he has his kids segregated in Catholic schools. Premier Dalton can point to the supposed peace in our schools as proof they have done a good job. But then the McGuinty government gave in to the teachers’ unions and the Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario is now pressing its 70,000 members to vote Liberal. Does all this serve the public good? Down to the final days of this campaign, the Liberal machine continues to fan the fears of voters to distract from the real issues. We’ve all seen the TV adds by the Working Families Coalition an initiative of the Ontario English Catholic Teachers Association and Ontario Secondary School Teachers' Federation. http://www.newswire.ca/en/releases/archive/August2007/23/c9730.html Unfortunately it will be after the election that voters realize that they have had their buttons pushed and strings pulled from behind the scenes by these self-interest groups. Democracy is not being well served. A Charter School System like Alberta's is a first step to reforming the Ontario system and breaking the grip of these self-interest groups on our democracy.

OK the remaining 39 list seats then get divided up between the smaller left and right wing parties and we get to see some fun shenanigans at Queen’s Park but control will still stay with the dominant party that resorts to the same old electioneering tricks. I see the well financed broadly supported promise anything Liberals gaining from MMP. MMP alone won’t give us better government. It still comes down to the expectations voters have of the politicians they elect. Which brings us back to the Democracy Watch Report Card @ http://www.dwatch.ca/camp/RelsOct0507.html .
