Liberals lead the way: Ontario Legislature

Fulfilling its mandate for creating a more prosperous, inclusive Ontario, the McGuinty government has moved forward with its various plans to alleviate poverty and exclusion in the province, while taking criticism from Conservatives on the federal and provincial level for the province's economic performance. The unfortunate fact is that the manufacturing industries are ailing and Ontario is more closely tied than most to the United States and its financial woes. Conservatives point to a rate of unemployment higher than the national average, but let us not forget that many of thsoe jobs are in the manufacturing sector and the United States itself lost 64 000 in the last period, and much worse rate in neighbouring Michigan.

Continuing on their quest for the aleviation of poverty despite these attacks shows eactly where the Ontario Liberal's priorities are, and that is exactly where they should be. The government envisages 267 million $ in funding for raising the level of public housing in the province and gives families in need a dental care plan, which is essential. Liberals want to cut taxes and let everything take care of themselves, putting more profit into the pockets of CEO's already rich of the backs of the province's workforce and wealth. It is right that the government push forward their vision for a fairer more prosperous Ontario.
