    I’m just baffled by how many multi-billion dollar boondoggles this government has racked up over the years and they just roll off of them. I still remember the screams about the 1 billion dollar gas plants Ontario Liberal scandal for years and years.

      I’ll bet you’ve heard of Rae Day’s as well. Funny how accountability works, huh?

        I landed in Canada a full decade after that and still heard about them.

        What do you expect? If we accept the truth that no governing party is capable of being responsible with money and contracts, then only said party’s social policies matter, and the right end of the spectrum has nothing there that appeals to anyone except bigots. Therefore the right wing must, at all costs, exaggerate everyone else’s money issues while doing the utmost to conceal their own.
