So the Premier gives us, the voters, the snub in his continued backing of the Health Minister. In a world of political swords, sword swallowers and sometimes – daggers, seems to me if he wanted to at least show remorse, he didn’t even have to have it, he just had to care enough to say he had it…but nope, arrogance – he summed up the first 647 million and the second …funny they didn’t even get a total on the second e-health debacle, but anyhow he summed it all up by saying….”this just shows we got to get better at what we do”. One is left to wonder – who is this “we” and what is it that “they” do? Yes I’m really upset about 647 million – heck, it’s almost a “billion”…but I’m more upset that with a Cabinet Shuffle in progress, he didn’t at least respect the Taxpayer enough to say…’Section Head goes’. And we complain of Bay & Wall Street arrogance?
Oh, oh and the Toronto City council, so worried about crossing a picket line, was Mr. Mayor, that the taxpayers footed at $20,000 bill to hold the Council meeting in an arena. They had to rush through acceptance of a Bombardier streetcar contract for around 1.2Billion (there’s that number again)…cause I guess if they waited even a minute past the midnight deadline, Bombardier would’a said “fogett’a about it, we don’t want to build your lousy streetcars any more….our airplane business has taken off and we’re just too busy”. Just who invents all this false pressure?
