Hydro rates about to soar
You gotta hand it to Dalton. The nanny state Premier never does anything in small measures.
First, the Premier passes the Harmonized Sales Tax, a tax grab effectively adding 8 per cent PST to a whole raft of things including utility bills. Then old Dalton sneaks in a special charge on Hydro bills to cover the cost of conservation incentives – taking your money by force and then giving it back to you if you do things his way. Then Ontario Hydro announces it wants to slam customers with a 9.6 per cent hydro rate hike.
That’s a triple whammy coming to a hydro bill near you.
So do you like Liberal government so far?
Let’s review seven years under the Liberal yoke – lies; spending like, well, Liberals or its synonym ‘idiots’; higher and higher taxes; more rules and regulations, bans and incentives to be good, and reduced freedom of thought and action.
Is that working for you?
The best part is the Liberals have another 18 months or so to really stick it to you. Just so you’ll be sure how you feel about them and their administration.
And to think this all started with the Liberals demonizing the PCs for spending $2.1 billion to stop SARS in its tracks.
