Since the Liberals are supplying 'em, and you demanded 'em, it's time for another Liberal Screwup Roundup!
We begin with the revelation that Ontario's financial woes are scaring immigrants away. And here I thought the Liberals could offer a pandering tax credit or two and we'd become a hub for skilled workers from other countries. Now we can't even find people to replace the ones who've decamped for the West thanks to Dalton's bungling.
Then we've got more bad press from Martin Regg Cohn in the Star, who lays out a scenario where Dalton isn't in the mood to listen to anybody. And people wonder why Hudak is so annoyed all the time! Here he is trying to keep Dalton from crashing into a brick wall, and the warnings are just not getting through. Maybe if Dalton wasn't surrounded by handlers pumping him full of talking points, he'd be more open to suggestions.
Then finally we have Liberal MPP Kim Craitor (rhymes with "traitor") up to his old tricks again. He's on record as being against the HST on home heating bills, but when it came time to vote on the recent symbolic PC/NDP stand against it, he couldn't be bothered to show up!
These Liberals pretend to be masters at playing all sides against each other, but they're the ones losing out here.
A tax credit for skilled immigrants is, frankly, about as attractive as are mail in rebates you get in retail stores.
ReplyDeleteIt takes quite a bit of effort and expense to jump through all the hoops to immigrate to Canada. So, why go to the sinking ship province where you can easily compare salaries, housing costs, and taxation ... and see that half of the other provinces of Canada are better choices.
Nothing short of fixing the broken overspending and overtaxation will really work in the long term.
