We can’t win. If it isn’t sponsorship scandals then it is fraudulent driver’s licenses and longer ambulance response times.
Why can we have real honest competent people running our country?

Any municipal level public organization is created by Acts of Provincial Parliment based on the constitution of Canada.
The responsibilities of Government to its People is enshrined in that fundamental document that creates only the Provincial Governments and the Federal Government that ties them together in their federation.
The Province of Ontario is therefore ultimately responsible to its citizens for everything that goes on in any sub-government they created by Acts of Provincial Parliment.
What this post is saying is that the Municipal Level Governments are in fact divisions of the Provincial Government.
Canada's constitution (the contractual document that establlishes the rights of both citizens and government) only talks about Federal and Provincial jurisdictions.
The Provinces make the Municipal and Regional divisions and can unmake them as needed to best serve the public interest.
A municipality is a wholy-owned subsidery of the Provincial Government. It is not an independant government in its own right. The public did not give municipalities fundamental governing rights of their own.
Acts of parliment are subject to change and they are very easy to amend. Every four years we have election to do just that, i.e., review what works and not and change things. Things MUST always strive to change for the better. It's called advancement. The alternative is stagnation and corruption.

Thee is a lot crap in this posting, innuendo and suggestions only.
I would like to see a lot of facts and figures before accepting the general statements as something that needs deep addressing.
Just because the Auditor General makes a statement doesn't mean it should be taken at face value. In fact, most of their statements are based on at most a perfuntory check of some documents. It may not be the general trend at all.
Driving licence fraud is a criminal offence. I seriously doubt it is wide spread.
Charities are suspect, and always have been.
Ambulance response times are babbled about periodically. There is no evidence to support rushing through the streets carrying a patient has saved lives. In fact a study in Kingston a few years ago mentioned that more people were killed by this insane business than were saved. Probably time it was stopped or at least seriously studied.
