revrnd Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Nothing to see here, move along folks... http://nationalpost.com/opinion/kelly-mcparland-a-criminal-conviction-confirms-what-ontarians-already-knew-about-the-liberals Quote Now that leader — Kathleen Wynne, a senior member of McGuinty’s cabinet and co-chair of the 2011 re-election campaign — wants it known that she sees the gas plant scandal as tired, old and unworthy of the attention the media and opposition insist on paying it. Indeed, when former McGuinty chief of staff David Livingston was convicted Friday of deliberately destroying documents in an effort to contain the scandal, Wynne’s office treated it as some ancient issue from a distant past. (McGuinty himself had not faced any charges.) A spokesperson sighed that Livingston and Laura Miller — who helped Livingston wipe clean 20 hard drives but was cleared by Justice Timothy Lipson — were “former officials of the former premier.” Nobodies, in other words. Hardly worth noticing … certainly nothing to do with Wynne’s own struggling government, now preparing for a June election. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pt3189 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 I would believe a criminal conviction against a former chief of staff of any political party should get the attention of the public . If people are willing to look at the leader and ministers involved in instructing this criminal action and the motive behind it, it would be difficult to vote Liberal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They lied from day one about it and won 2 elections after the fact. The Public is aware and has been for years.

02sled Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 https://www.theglobeandmail.com/report-on-business/small-business/sb-managing/ontario-homes-for-disabled-in-real-trouble-because-of-minimum-wage-hike/article37655699/ The recent spike in Ontario's minimum wage is creating financial hardship for cash-strapped private care homes for people with special needs, some of which face closing without immediate government assistance. "This has been devastating to our industry," Connie Evans, president of the Ontario Homes for Special Needs Association (OHSNA) says of the impact of the 21-per-cent increase in the minimum wage, to $14 from $11.60, which took effect on Jan. 1. Ontario is set to increase the minimum wage another 7 per cent to $15 in 2019. "We are already operating close to the bottom line … and that was before this increase in minimum wage," says Ms. Evans, who also owns the Queenview Residential Home for Special Care in Queensville, Ont., about 60 kilometres north of Toronto. "I don't know how they expect us to do it … How can we provide the same care to our clients when our expenses will be more than 30 per cent higher?"

The fact these care givers are making minimum wage in the first place is fucked up and shows the increase is well needed. Give over it, the law has changed and will not be reverted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask fail. Finally someone said it.... business just needs to operate at a deficit... so obvious... the business owners can just keep losing money and depleting their reserves then go into debt they won't be able to pay. When the seniors in care homes with a fixed income can't pay a 25% increase I guess we should just throw them out on the street. I doubt Wynnebag will pony up the cash to help them but will always find cash for unnecessary things they think will buy them their jobs.

Funny a English speaker has two options. Provide breath sampler or not. Quite simple. Taxpayer funded refugees get 3 options. Provide breath sample or not and also I need interpreter. You cannot understand english or french then no rights to drive. How can you comprehend instructions in an emergency if you do not understand one of our official languages. Go to the home country of these refugees and see what happens when you say I don’t understand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
