It’s no doubt true that the McGuinty Government has spent us into a heck of a hole. But the way in which Don Drummond, the former chief economist of the TD Bank, has gone about describing our plight is a masterpiece of style. His tone might have come from Winston Churchill’s Blood, Sweat and Tears speech. So what’s up? Some will say that the crafty Dalton McGuinty has created a dandy straw man to beat up as needed. It’s quite extraordinary, for example, that an expert consultant should have his recommendations dismissed out of hand on the same day his report is made public. But that’s what Finance Minister Dwight Duncan did with the proposal to cancel all-day kindergarten. What a great chance for the Government to look like defenders of the family. Happy Family Day.The report is replete with things that will mean certain death for the Government. It’s hard to take it seriously. End drug benefits for seniors? A political bullet to the brain. Are we to believe that a Government that cancels power plants in mid-construction to save a few votes will do any of this?
