There will be many strikes and they'll use trickery to "balance" the budget without actually balancing it and then the province will become an economic basket case when the left wing party returns to power. Have fun!

Thunder Bay has only been connected to Toronto by road for about 65 years so we're not too far behind you on the highway upgrades. The only reason we're getting a twinned highway to Nipigon is because the MPP for this area is in cabinet.
I'm REALLY hoping that the PCs don't win in Ontario for the reasons you listed above. And the PCs are very out of touch with Northern Ontario where they consider Parry Sound and Muskoka to be part of us and they spend lots of money there and say that they are helping the North.
