Highway 407 rip-off

Last week there was another court ruling that upheld the original bad contract the Conservatives signed when they privatized Highway 407 and once again proved that they are very bad when it comes to managing economic portfolios. Good for businesses-Bad for consumers.
The following is an editorial in the Toronto Star on the subject;

The editorial asks the question whether the case should be pursued, whether it is in the taxpayers interest.
I say yes and more. There are some other strategies that can be employed in this horrendous give-away of taxpayers' hard earned money.
The Conservative Party should be sued along with key cabinet ministers. This makes accountability a key factor in the process and makes political parties be accountable for the policies they push onto the taxpayers. It will also make cabinet ministers take the publics interests into account when making decisions.
It has the added advantage of securing more press coverage of an issue that should be of greater concern to the voting public.
The Government can also look at eliminating tax credits for those who claim travel as a tax deductible expense, thus forcing people who use the highway to pay for it's use out of their own pockets. This should put a serious dent in the number of users, affect the profitability of the highway and force the owners to re-open the contract and sign a better deal with the taxpayers of the province.
This giveaway of a key taxpayer owned asset should not be allowed to fade from memory.
