Highway 407

What gives with the highway 407 debacle? Wheres the accountability?? Why....ohh...why do people not hold the destructive regressives, the Tories, responsible for this mess. They gave away the store folks, they sold us out!!
Heres how it went.
They wanted to give their rich buddies a tax break, but, they had to have cash for programs that Ontarians took for granted. Cash that would disappear with a tax break. Viola! They sold off a public asset, the 407, to a Spanish consortium to finance the tax break. This Spanish consortium hold the people of Ontario to ransom, by constantly raising tolls on the highway. When the government of the day, the Liberals want to do right by the citizens who voted for the, said Spanish consortium whines to the Sapnish government, who then threaten to hold up a vital trade deal. A decision that harms Canadians in general, not just the Ontarians who voted for the Harris Tories.
We need .........we desperately need.........
"ACCOUNTABILITY....NOW"!!

A great vacation

I have just returned from a great vacation. Some much needed time off. 2 glorious weeks in the highlands of Cape Breton. Ya have to see the Cabot trail.
Fantastic scenery, haunting views, I see why the celts have congregated here. Quixotic names that I could hardly pronounce, memories of a long lost homeland for those who settled the area. Unpleasant memories of an accent that reminded me of the time spent in Brampton with a very unsavory person, that was the only downside.
But. It is back to reality. I have the rest of this week off, then it is back to the salt mines.
Back with a profound sense of the great country that I reside in...
Ohhhhhhhhh..............CANADA!!!
