The peoples' voice results in a minority

It has been almost two weeks since the McGuinty government was returned to power with a minority. The people of Ontario showed their displeasure. Analysis of the election results long forgotten now it is only a wait for the shuffle, who is what and why. The bigger question is yet to be answered, how long will it be before the next election. On a personal level I expect no change whatsoever from Dalton McGuinty nor his chosen ministers. This blog will continue to pursue the attempt to reach some answers for the questions raised, to raise new ones and find a way to ensure that the people have the facts. John Wilkinson was not returned to office. Statistics show that Minister for Environment John Wilkinson had the greatest number of visits on his page on no-ad-lib.blogspot.com. People do care for the environment even in these tough times. Slowly we as environmentalists will provide enough undeniable facts of the importance to work for a sustainable future today. Minister John Wilkinson has one last question posted though as always no answers will be forthcoming.

Now we wait to see who will be filling what post. No expectations or hopes of promise, though an expectation of the same old thing, an expectation of a “dirtier Ontario.” The hope is in you, the people of Ontario, of Canada and beyond. After all our children, our grandchildren are worth it.

ARE WE READY FOR THIS?

Are we ready for this? October 6 2011 Ontario Provincial Election. Who out of the three do we pick and why? There is Dalton McGuinty and his Liberals. Famous for avoiding the truth and never willing to take responsibility for anything. Dalton used David Suzuki in an attempt to bolster his public image in particular relating to the Liberal Environmental policy. But then backed out of the deal on power generation and the reduction of coal as a primary power generator. The Conservatives headed by Tim Hudak, rather vague on policy or a true platform. Many promises made, though we're used to that game. How different would Tim Hudak and the Conservatives be for Ontario? After all they talk of privatization in health care. Can we as Canadians accept anything of the sort? Finally there is Andrea Horwath and the NDP. Not so shabby in a debate but what would she be like in the hot seat? Some say better the devil you know then the one you don't. Yet it will be another four years before we have a chance to change our minds. We have no power, no ability to even hold any of them accountable after we make that choice.

No recommendations, no guesses only hesitation. One thing though I do know and that is whoever should win the election this blog will stand watch. It is the people of Ontario who come first. It is our future that we are about to trust each one of you with.
