How is Hydro a major screw up? It seems to me that what happened as far as pricing was inevitable if we wanted a greener and more reliable hydro system. Remember the massive 2003 black out. The other parties do not really offer anything better on this front. The sell off of Hydro is helping fund infrastructure improvements.

The Ontario economy is also doing extremely well.

The problem with the deficit is because of heavy investment in infrastructure. How do the other parties provide a better option? How do tax cuts allow us to invest in infrastructure? This all seems to go back to the days of Mike Harris who cut taxes massively and shrank the tax base. He certainly did not invest much in infrastructure.
