And it's all the Liberals fault. If only we had a Conservative government to destroy our economy instead of the socialist, bleeding heart lefties that are just sucking us dry of all of our tax dollars.....

Ontario economy outpacing G7 nations, finance minister says
Ontario’s economy is growing at a healthy clip, outpacing all G7 nations, according to the province’s second quarterly public accounts.
From April to June, gross domestic product increased 0.8 per cent, which followed a 1 per cent increase in the first quarter of 2017.
“Ontario’s economy continues to grow, with real GDP growth outpacing the average of all G7 countries in the second quarter of 2017,” Finance Minister Charles Sousa said Monday.
Sousa noted the province’s unemployment rate last month was 5.6 per cent, its lowest level this century.
“This evidence tells us that our plan is working, and we are making progress,” said the treasurer, telling reporters he expects the province’s economy to grow by between 2.6 per cent and 2.8 per cent this year.
“It’s kind of like we planted a tree some years ago and we’re getting shade and we’re getting the fruits of our labour,” he said.
His rosy rhetoric comes as Ontarians go to the polls on June 7, 2018 and most public-opinion surveys show the governing Liberals trail the Progressive Conservatives.
Growth in the second quarter was driven by “solid consumer spending.”
