New Scandal: Will this be the worst yet?

[Hunter John]

Fall it will.

[topher]

As it stands right now I am self-employed. It will be interesting to see how this falls.

a new 3.8% tax for you?

[JBen]

You won't be exempt Dyth.

It's lunacy, and more imo.
And yeah Terry, I wonder how the PS would react if Ms Wynne said we are going to tax you 4% to help fund the ORPP or even their own.

As for those who made fun of Hudak, or voted L or championed or campaigned for them.

/shrug

One day they will have to look in the mirrow and live with their decisions. Right now things don't look so good for Ontario

Self employed also. I will go to jail or go on welfare before I will send the thieving bunch of lying inept crooks a single penny.

Topher,

Quite possibly. Right now, I get a few benefits which outweigh negatives and I still think this will be the case when they implement this. I don't think it is right what they are doing though. As a self-employed person, I know I don't claim nearly as much as I could (or my accountant wants me to) but I may just tighten up the belt some and start claiming more expenses.

Jben,

While I may not be exempt, per my comment above, I may have to start claiming more. I think this move is going to force a lot of people who are full time with no pension plan into the consulting business in order to start to offset some of the financial increases this government has made and will make. Having people move to self employment is asinine because self employed people will not pay as much in income tax which is the government's big coffer filler.

I'm having an issue with the video but thought this might be relevant.

Kathleen Wynne insults Canada, admits she doesn't care about fixing Ontario's economy

[terrym]

Wynne is drunk with the absolute power the idiots in Ontario gave her last election. She said she was going to run an "activist" government and is doing exactly that. Her sex ed agenda isn't based on requests from parents and any person who disagrees with her is labelled as a homophobic, many see it as agenda based. The coming pension scam has already been proven to be nothing but a new revenue source for her to balance the books before her next campaign. Her supporters and financiers love the plan as they don't have to contribute to it. While in opposition the Liberals demonized Harris for leasing out ( not selling ) the 407 but now she is selling off something so fundamentally critical and economically strategic as our power supply. I wonder how big a chunk the teacher's pension fund will get at a discount price? Once we lose control of Hydro it's done. Forever. FOREVER !!!!
It truly is troubling to see how Ontarians seem to have no moral compass. Democracy means nothing anymore. She stole $Billions$ in the gas plant scandal. Got caught destroying evidence of the coverup and not only did the voters give her a pass on this they actually gave her a promotion to a majority. So, crime and incompetence is now not only tolerated it's endorsed in Ontario. This is the new normal here.

I held my nose and voted for the Conservatives last year... in the face of things... it doesn't make me sleep any better or worry about my family's fiscal future any less.

After discussing it long and hard, my wife has finally determined that there's no way she can leave ON and her family, before our kids are done high school. Ugh.

Going to be quite a few long, hard years before we can escape this sinking ship i guess.

With the unions keeping her in power and her greasing them to do it just getting the Liberals out of office could take 20 yrs. Repairing the economic damage likely won't happen in our lifetimes.

terrym,

You sound frustrated mate. I don't want to add to your stress but I think you forgot one very important point about Wynne selling shares in Hydro One. In December 2001, the provincial government under Mike Harris wanted to sell shares in Hydro One but various groups in opposition were able to halt the sale through court orders. Now 14 years later, the provincial government wants to do the exact same thing. Yes Liberal supporters, the leader of your party has the same idea as Mike Harris, the same man who they vilify and trot out to scare everyone into their way of thinking. Hahahahahahahahahahaha.
