Her approval rating, once as high as 40%, now sits at 18%. It�s the lowest Forum has ever measured for an Ontario Liberal premier since it began polling in 2011.

In fact, if a provincial election was held tomorrow, Patrick Brown�s Progressive Conservative Party would capture a minority government, according to a the survey.

�There is no question the Progressive Conservatives would win an election held tomorrow, but it appears they wouldn�t be able to seal the deal with a majority,� Forum Research president Lorne Bozinoff said. �Patrick Brown needs to become more of a familiar face to Ontarians before that happens�



Let's get a new government in and make some deep cuts to her biggest cheerleaders at the OPP...

How Kathleen Wynne has Ontario going backwards

Doesn't matter, they're stuck with her for another 2 years.

2 years or a thousand it really doesn't matter. It's like eating glass. At some point it's leaving your body but by the time it gets to the exit most of the damage has already been done.

I guess BF is going to have to shout even louder that everything is fine, and there are no problems with a Liberal government.

Two more years what a depressing thought.

The Ontario manufacturing sector can also add on billions of dollars that didn't get generated from equipment not sold in Alberta and Saskatchewan over the last two years thanks to the oil price collapse. Not that Wynne would care, with her death-to-fossil-fuels mania, but the activity out here created activity down there. That's where the petty regionalism that fuels the politics in this country gets so frustrating. They panic about the interlinked network that's threatened by the Brexit but at the same time they can't even bring themselves to acknowledge the interlinked network inside of Canada that benefited the entire country with jobs and increased tax revenue. Ah well, enjoy being pure as you heat your homes and fuel your cars with scented organic candles, or whatever the fuck it is you think is going to replace gas and oil.

Environmental actions from Ontario don't even make sense. The last thing I read about was forcing homes to use electricity instead of natural gas. But they built a natural gas burning power plant. That isn't 100% efficient; burning natural gas to produce electricity, then electricity to heat homes, actually consumes more natural gas than heating your home directly. So this will increase carbon emissions.

...if he keeps his yap shut. His predecessor opened his, spewed out something silly about a gazillion jobs and lost the last election in thirty seconds.

She will always have a home in Alberta.

The OPP union publicly attacked the Conservatives, why? Because some of their jobs were going to be cut.

So not only was she re-elected but she knew those sworn to enforce laws were going to allow her multiple, billion dollar scandals without nary a consequence.

Wait until the Vancouver/Toronto housing market bubble bursts.

This will shock you, but even during your now-defunct oil boom, we sold more goods and services to the great big world that exists outside Alberta's borders than we ever sold to Alberta. The inflated petro-dollar from the Alberta oil boom made those goods and services more expensive so during the oil boom we lost far more than we gained. It's not a coincidence that this economy came bounding back as soon as the oil prices fell through.
