Much of what happens in Ontario politics never makes it into the media. I am one of many voices and representatives at Queen’s Park; here’s a bit of what I have been doing to represent my constituents’ interests, and for the betterment of Ontario.

Ontario's Budget

There's been a lot of discussion between the Liberals and NDP on how and when to raise taxes even more in order to get NDP support or this budget that raises government6 spending $ 2 billion this year.

Ontario has been riddled with job losses all because the cost of doing business in this province has spun out of control under Dalton McGuinty. I cannot support this budget when it does nothing to address both the spending and jobs crises we have here in Ontario.

I have my own thoughts and views on the current proposed Liberal budget, but I'd also like to hear your views and concerns.

What budget amendments or changes would you propose to ensure Ontario gets back on the right track?
