Here I will write my column on politics on fed and provincial levels.

Since the last remaining nationwide conservative bastion of the National Post is slowly sinking, since Sir Conrad Black left this leftwing socialist godforsaken country last century, there will be a lot of challenges for the conservative philosophy in this country and I will try to sound my own account on this.

I can't wait... Down with Liberals.

Unfortunately the Liberals are going to win the provincial elections.

It's the way the veteran PCs will punish Eves for screwing up the Harris's Common Sense Revolution and paving way for the Liberals and incompetent McGuinty.

Обещаю воздерживаться и не подвергать твои "консервативные идеи" уничижительной критике:-)



Кстати, сколько даешь еще времени National Post? От них журналисты бегут как крысы... Вот недавно Кристи Блэтчфорд вернулась в Globe and Mail...

Of course, Eves was fully responsible for deregulating the electricity market, cutting down spending on education, health care, public health (including water treatment facilities in Walkerton), public transit, etc.:-) Harris was just in charge, but Eves is responsible:-)

ben,

That's diabolical -- of course! Deprive the private sphere of any money, keep it all in the governments' hands, controlled by those who think more government is the answer! Any better than dreaded Soviet Union propaganda or Nazi propaganda ? I don't think so.

Грусто с Постом... Раньше это была моя любимая газета, а теперь когда её звездой стала Rebecca Eckler газета стала неинтересной. Особенно обидно что Mark Steyn перестал писать, у него были великолепные колумны.

Thor.. like we discussed, I liked Harris.. but I don't know about Eves. On another hand I refuse to vote Liberal.. Refrain from voting? or still support Eves? Is he competent enough?

Coon,

I don't know. Eves screwed up big time. McGuinty will get elected, it's a natural, he'll be a Bob Ray that got elected due to lack of decent candidates around at the time.

McGuinty will also be a fallback guy when things go wrong, when the teachers start striking and all. He ll be taken down. He's incompetent. Just got big heavies as friends in Ottawa.

Maybe the Liberals won't win yet. Accoding to the latest poll the size of their lead is shrinking and is now down to 5%. Considering the margin of error, their victory isn't set in stone.

OK.. Can you explain a little more in detail about Bob Ray? And how exactly did Eves fail? I didn't really follow him since he replaced Harris. One thing I like about Eves is he is dishing out a lot of money for events like the SARS concert, the blues fest in Toronto and in Windsor and he is supporting the tourism in Ontario. That is good for me considering the projects im working on right now. But unfortunatly I haven't really paid attention to his policy and his views or his style of governing.

Eve.. one thing I know is that Eves' declaration of lowering the insurance rates and actually putting a cap in place can win him some popularity, because there are too many angry drivers out there who are paying thru the nose. This tactic won Mr Cretin the election when he lowered the price on cigarettes.

Also, you can think of a different scenario. If (in the most likely scenario) McGuinty wins, Eves would be ousted as party leader, with Flaherty the likely successor. Flaherty (who was stupidly spurned by his party two years ago is Ontario's most prominent privatizer, free marketer and tax cutter. McGuinty once in power will soon find his platform impossible to implement successfully-the environment and the economy are likely to suffer, making McGuinty vulnerable to opposition pressure. If the opposition comes from the Flaherty Tories, the Ontario Liberals will lurch toward free market solutions, much as the federal Reform Party forced the Liberals to move rightward in the 1990s. And that will give Ontario's free-market Tories policies they want under McGuinty that they could never have had under Eves.

Racoon, both Liberals and Tories are promising to cap premiums.

Eve.. like I said, I didn't really follow politics for a while, so I'm not sure of what are they promising now. I liked the fact that Eves wants to forbid the teachers and essential services to strike.

Yeah. I like this one too.

When are we going to get someone young with balls to make the changes and instead of ammending old laws and creating new loopholes for creeps to operate maybe come up with new ones that will make sense. In some ways I admire Putin for this.

Racoon,



it is actually funny, but I think probably natural for most common folks like yourself to choose politically what is likely to work well for their pockets:-)



If I thought this way, I would certainly support morons like Flaherty and other fascists from the provincial PC - what is good for Bay Street, good for Ontario:-( I will only get richer...



by the way, it is Bob Rae, not Ray... He is a former Premier (NDP) and a partner at Goodmans now...



Thor,



yeah, let's have competition in water treatment, electricity distribution, sewage... Let's make sure that millions of people do not have health insurance (like in most American states in the conservative South)
