Ontario - What happened????

Everyday I am more amazed as to what is happening in Ontario politics. More and more I cannot believe that my hard earned money (as in taxes) is being spent on such idiotic governments. I think if I was not Canadian I would be protesting in the streets.

What a mess we are in. I have been engaged in politics for a couple of decades and it has just been getting worse every year. How can anyone possibly think the existing Ontario Provincial government is functional? I must admit I never liked McGuinty when he became premier and he pissed me off by lying about raising taxes and the day after he was elected did the exact opposite and imposed a health tax. But OMG! The shit just keeps on piling up. If this guy actually gets re-elected I will lose total faith in the Canadian democratic system.

Since he has been in office I have witnessed with great financial pain the following:
- new health tax but still mediocre health care
- excessive job losses to all other provinces
- implementation of a consumption tax (HST) which not only do I pay more but as a business owner I have to charge more
- ban on cell phones in cars (ever watch the other drivers on the 401 eating a burg or putting on makeup while driving?)
- scandal after scandal: eHealth/eScam, OLG, Hydro One and the list just continues to grow....
- daddy and mommy daycare at school this year (um lets see, pay for daycare or send your 3 year old to school for free???)
- implement a plant pay alternative energy suppliers to supply the grid and than roll it back?
- EAOQ (need I say more)
- the latest is let your kids use there smartphone in class

What does it take to get Ontarions to actually get mad and get rid of this bum?
