^^^ OK... semantics. The Province is still running a massive deficit.. and if interest rates were to creep up even a fraction, the deficit would be much worse. Ontario is ADDING to its debt with each passing minute.... so if we're running a structural surplus.. then we're borrowing money to pay interest. Nice.
I do understand the Ministry of Beer will be a trivial cost.. I was just being melodramatic
HOWEVER, the main point is.. the ONLY reason all these crazy new rules are being put in place is so that the Liberal Party can continue to receive large donations from a US Multinational corporation. It's a very fine line between "political donations" and kickbacks... and I believe this example crosses the line into the latter...
