I wonder how much less waste would occur if Ontarios leaders had their salaries tied to a balanced budget...a novel ideal that will be forced upon us one way or another.

Huh? Why would we want to tie someone's salary to anything other than MRPL?

Huh, links to the NP but says file not found. I'm not really surprised about this though. Probably paid $6 million to the consulting firm the Wynned Bag's life partner used to run, who then suggested spending $5.7 million on advertising and promotion to businesses that were very pro-Ontario Liberal party. You'd think a nice notice in the ratepayers' hydro bills advising them of the coming rebate would have been sufficient.
But nope, in typical fashion of the Ontario Liberals for the last 14 years, they once again pissed away millions of Ontario tax dollars on absolutely nothing. Well it IS something, it's called theft at the very least.
