I thought it might be time to start this thread,
Although, Still in the early stages of the Ontario election,
This guy has many people standing up and looking at him.

His platform so far is workfare for prisoners,
An extension if you will on the Mike Harris platform,
Except now he wants prisoners to be accountable for their day to day lives.

Never mind what "WorkFare" did to Ontario's poor when it was introduced by "Mike Harris,
The poor took a pay cut and were forced to work for a can of tuna that they couldn't afford.

The mentally ill were forced out into the streets and the disabled weren't allowed to save for their retirement.

But that was the Mike Harris years, Fortunately McGuinty abolished all that nonsense,
Now however, Another Dark Horse has appeared in the forefront and threatens to bring
you whatever you little people desire, Whether it is less taxes or less services or even more pay per use.

What say ye?

Is this the kind of government you want in Ontario this fall?

I'll take it if it stops McGunity's green energy initiative. However, I'm very disappointed in the lack of spending cuts presented. Hudak is simply no Mike Harris.

How can he have any sins when he has no power or policies that have been implemented?

i-rui

don't forget his campaign promise for cheaper beer!

all he needs is a snappy slogan. "change book" ain't going to cut it.

Macfury

He's sinful because he represents a conservative party--the Original Sin of leftists. Kind of pitiful, huh?

Well Hudak hasn't had the chance to sin in government yet.

Though so far he may have handed McGuinty a nice big club with that whole make the prisoners work stupidity. Ideas like that, he'll crash and burn. He should stick to lying about tax breaks for the regular folk like his federal bros.

I do believe that given how little people like McGuinty, that all the Conservatives need to do to win is run someone who seems superficially reasonable on a platform of "I'm not McGuinty."

If I were them, I wouldn't mess it up by throwing actual policy into it to be debated.... particularly not this early when people have lots of time to hear lots of spin about it.

I don't think you're too far on that. Hudak's cross is the Harris years, if he were smart he'd stfu up about things like worfare etc.

There's no question that Dalt "the Dud" McGuinty has to go, but Hudak, if elected, will inherit a bigger deficit and a bigger hole in the budget than Mikey Harris inherited from Bobby Rae. Should be interesting how all that pans out given Hudak's so called "change book". It all sounds a lot like "the common sense revolution" and that could spell disaster, except that Hudak actually promises to increase the health care and education budgets.

The trend favours Hudak and the Tories, but October is a ways off. We shall see.

Yeah, so long as he stays away from the phrase "common sense revolution," he would likely be fine.

Change that campaign to "I'm not McGuinty" with a dash of "Harris? Never heard of the man."
