The saddest part of all this is that we have absolutely no legitimate honest “opposition” to this inside our present Provincial Government. The person leading the cries of outrage here, Andrea Horwath was a signatory on the Green Energy Act that is promoting this type of “bribery” and the other Party, the Conservatives receive as much money in “bribes” as the Libs!
Nobody can stand up in Queen’s Park with a straight face and accuse anyone sitting beside them, in front of them or behind them of being dishonest while fumbling with taxpayers change in their own pockets!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Those amounts listed above are the very re4ason why Fair Vote Ontario and Fair Vote Canada are trying so hard to remove corporate donations to Municipal candidates.
Here in Norfolk County, the Coucillor who pushed hardest to have AIM PowerGen erect first 38 then another 18 IWT’s in the southwest corner of our county is on record as having accepted money FROM AIM /IPC for his election campaign.
Without diluting what we are doing, we do need to change the election contributions in Municipal campaigns!
If you have time, please contact FVO/FVC @ 416 – 410 – 4034 and office@fairvote.ca
Is there anywhere on the internet where we could find “donations” for the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario?
I bet the same contributors names come up on that one too!
It’s called “covering your bets”!
And don’t forget the multiple $8500 liberal party donations from StrategyCorp Inc., registered Ontario lobbyist working on behalf of its client, CanWEA! Thinly veiled corruption. Just because it’s legal doesn’t make it ethical.
If someone has the time and inclination to put something together for 2011, the info is found here:

The most despicable thing about this entire situation is the realization that there are so many morally bankrupt people in Ontario. While they pass around their almighty corporate money supporting each other, we have families who are in severe financial distress because they can’t live in their homes. This is sickening. Where the h*ll are the self professed humanitarians in our government? How long must this go on?
