| What exactly is a drive by? Posting something you know other people will react to? Isn't that their problem, not mine? I expressed my opinion. You disagree, fine, but why the need to label it something it isn't? That's what you get off on. You post stupid/outrageous and downright provacative commen... |

I sure hope so. Invoking God to protect your country is blasphemy. No different than thanking him for a touchdown. A guy in the sky playing favorites. Guess we haven't really evolved past the cavemen.

| As I said, and as the article says, the ORPP goes live Jan 1 2017, the original date, with no delay. Eligible workers will start earning a pension as of that date. What's been pushed back is the phase-in schedule for employer and employee premiums. Originally scheduled for the same 2017 go-live dat... |

| The ORPP program isn't delayed, only the contributions have been delayed. All industry analysts are predicting that it will be here for the foreseeable future as the government has passed the point of no return in terms of what has been put in place, and even a future conservative party might find ... |

| So? Still all those are new jobs under the supposedly economy-ruining, job-destroying Liberals, even after they announced their supposedly evil investment-killing Climate Change and ORPP plans. 700 jobs over the next couple years is nice, but it's a much better photo-op. It's nothing to get excited... |

If you take a look around the auto sector lately, you'll realise how wrong that image is.
Every manufacturer is undergoing massive recalls. |

DrCaleb DrCaleb: That's why I love the Tesla. 
Frankly, I'm surirpised you like the vehicle at all.
Being all computer based and "hackable" I would suspect you wouldn't touch this car even with your tin foil hat.  |

| 1,000 high-skill, high-tech jobs doesn't make up for 1,000 low-skill, low-tech jobs? As the OP says, 1,000 engineers constitutes a "centre of excellence" and can form the nucleus of a high-tech auto sector to replace the current low-tech auto sector that can't compete with locations like ... |

I'll wait for the actual numbers to come out....to which they'll likely say are wrong like they've done to the Auditor General numerous times this year. |

The orange pictures were the result of proper stage makeup and improper lighting.
Oh gawd. Do you actually believe that?
There must be some awful makeup and lighting people following him everywhere for the last 20 years. |

| Also in the last election, the Conservatives campaigned on firing 100,000 government employees as the only way to prevent imminent economic collapse. Then when they were criticised for it, they said Wynne was secretly planning to do the same thing just not being honest about it. I guess that's not ... |

Yet you support an Orange man who hasn't yet grasped the concept of fake... |
