Premier McGuinty honour your pledge<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

No New Municipal Taxes<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

We call on the government of Ontario to repeal the taxing powers given to the City of Toronto under the \u201cStronger City of Toronto Act\u201d and that these powers not be extend to any other municipality in the province.<\/p>\n

Conduct a full forensic audit of Hydro One and fire President and CEO with cause<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

We, the undersigned taxpayers, call on the government of Ontario to conduct a full forensic audit into Hydro One. Any individual found to have falsified expense claims should be forced through legal means to repay amounts owing.<\/p>\n

Ask Taxpayers if MPP’s deserve a pay raise<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The 25% proposed pay raise for MPP\u2019s is outrageous. You have justified the raise by comparing your salary and MPP salaries to those of MP\u2019s in Ottawa.

Even more troubling, your government is trying to fast-track this legislated pay raise without consulting taxpayers.<\/p>\n

And, last but not least, from the Dog Legislation Council of Canada<\/a>:<\/p>\n
