Making statements like the ones that he made without any proof to back them up is illegal.

There is more than enough for the opposition to work with on this issue without resorting to libel. It just seems to be another example of how Hudak has really done a poor job at trying to hold the government to account.

The plants should have been crammed down throats. This NIMBY **** is a big part of why ON is turning into a shi.thole just like Queerbec.

It just all sounds so funny from a guy who sat in both Harris and Eve's Cabinets - all through the period when Ontario Hydro was sold out - to be pointing fingers at that which he did.

Selling off Crown Utilities and Telecomm was the stupidest thing some Provinces have ever done.

You've gotta live with the problems that has created. It could have been stopped.

NDP walks out of legislature over Wynne’s absence

New Democrats stormed out of the legislature Monday because Premier Kathleen Wynne was on a trip to Sault Ste. Marie and not present to answer questions about a criminal investigation into the $1.1 billion gas plant scandal.

No wonder @Kathleen_Wynne didn't come to Question Period today... The man who destroyed govt docs worked for her until this weekend. #onpoli

I hope there's cameras rolling somewhere:

Lies, deceit, treachery.... The drama continues....

Maybe NDP had the idea. Who wants that stuff splashed on ya?...

Politics is all about the smoke screen. Distract until it doesn't matter any more....

Polls as of today:



Finally, we get just a little bit of clarity in Ontario. Polls have very rarely been in agreement of the situation in the province, but the latest Forum poll matched the previous poll from Nanos very closely. The two surveys gave the Liberals 35% to 36% support, the PCs 32% to 33%, and the NDP 25%. It makes for a nice, tight little grouping. For now.

With the aggregate levels of support, the Liberals would likely be able to win another minority government of 46 seats, with 36 seats going to the Tories and 25 seats going to the NDP.

Calling an election now would be a complete waste of money and this would backfire on the opposition.

Don't take the bait folks.

It is hard to say that Wynne or the party in general has "run" from this. The Premier already resigned over this situation.

Wynne has addressed questions about this head on. This latest thing is simply her saying that she wont stand for completely unsubstantiated accusations.

Because it will see-saw between preacher hands and grumpy teacher until election time because who knows what drama and theatrics the BS crew will come up with next to hide the fact that neither can admit they screwed us.

What do you envision that election ad would look like? "We screwed you. Vote for me."

Just so were clear. Dalton McGuinty was Premier from 2003 to 2013. That's Ten years or if you prefer, two and bit terms, before he decided to jump ship because he knew this criminal misappropriation of ONE BILLION tax dollars to secure seats in an election would have sunk him.

Harris and Eves cannot be blamed for this BS. Sorry, join us in the present.

Anyone that votes for these crooks is beyond stupid.

If your politics are left leaning you should vote NDP.

As for kathleen Wynne's Liberal Party, they should be thrown in jail for this crap.

One billion dollars to secure three Liberal seats.

CRIMINAL.

Premier of Alberta racks up a hefty bill for a dignitary funeral and gets shown the door.

Premier of Ontario steals a billion dollars out of the Ontario taxpayers pocket for political gain and some Ontarion's blame Harris.

When will the Have Nots wake the F Up?
