Ontario says No to the Conservatives

[triedit]

Im looking forward to the new stat holiday. I don't subscribe to the "beware of drunk drivers" attachment to it as above.

Any day I don't have to go out in the cold is appreciated.

yep, and those who lose a loved one to a drunk driver who had a few too many in celebration of a lousy day off during a blizzard or ice storm in the coldest heart of winter will have no one but Dalton to thank for it.

I can't wait 'til the Liberals have a MADD campaign launched against them when the next writ gets dropped.

What has a new stat holiday to do with a drunk behind the wheel? Any day that ends in 'Y' is a cause for a drink to a drunk....

What about "tomorrow"? *snicker*

Of course that is a reasonable argument, El Dubya, but try convincing someone who loses their loved one to a drunk driver come next Family Day. (anyone wanna bet there won't be one?) Do you think they'll buy your statement that there's really no correlation?

About the only way I figure they wouldn't blame McGuilty is if they actually voted for him, because then, they'd only have themselves to blame.

I, personally, know it wouldn't be McGuilty's fault, just like I know that Walkerton wasn't more Harris' fault than then Finance Minister Paul Martin's fault for cutting back transfer payments to the provinces which necessitated the province's cutbacks to municipalities in the first place, which everyone tries to hang Harris for on that whole issue. It was neither of their faults, actually, but the sole responsibility of the brothers Koebel who would have screwed up their jobs regardless of who held office in Queen's Park.

Sure, it's a lot of nonsense, but so many are blinded by their unreason.

Probably will be ... and a lot more Christmas. Nobody's talking about banning that - and I did lose family members to a Christmas-party drunk driver.

I am sorry to hear of your loss, lone wolf.

Was a very long time ago (in-laws) Thanks all the same.

Point is, a drunk behind the wheel doesn't need a whole day to accomplish what he/she can do in an hour or so. This new Family Day will be welcome to some, won't really make a difference to others and amounts to income lost for a few.

I don't think it seemed to matter. For being the alternative party and the alternate choice to the BSing of the mainstream choices, the NDP gained less than 2 percentage points from 2003. Considering the bluster about them holding the balance of power in a minority government only a week and a half ago, that's pretty weak.

I'd be surprised to see Howie leading the party by 2008. Now is a perfect time to inject the party with a youthful leader.

Hampton is just fine, the problem with the NDP is they are to honest in their platform and people never vote for the truth.

The people of Ontario have spoken and they said we would take the lying Liberals because at least they try to get it right.

John Tory ran a good campaign and he should have won but he had two strikes against him.

Mike (the knife) Harris and our Conservative Prime Minister Harper.

These two individuals the icons of Conservative values have scared the crap out of the voters of Ontario.

This should be a wake up call to the federal Conservatives that they still didn’t get the trust of the voters of Ontario.

If a federal election were called today then Harper’s government would lose.

Harper will have to re-write the throne speech so that the trigger for an election would not happen.

Typical arogant Liberal.

Harper is in majority territory now and the only reason the lying Libs won in Ontario is because Tory has no political sense at all.
