That our premier would brazenly spend taxpayer money on such an adolescent stunt, and then brag about it, shows the disconnect between his office and the residents of Ontario.
If he wants to trade meaningless barbs, let him do it on his own nickel. And this observation is coming from one who proclaims himself to be a lifelong Conservative.

NOBODY BUT US MINIONS?
Is it possible we may actually have lost so many brave men and women in the “last great war” that we have become a nation of minions?
We followed both Trudeaus to almost patriotic and economic destruction, and now another media darling who promises Utopia is leading a proven-incapable government.
Hate Trump, but he is a true patriot to his country, while we have the lost decade. Wake up, Canada.

GET READY FOR BLAIS AND BANK SHOW
Anyone notice the intersection design at Blais Road and Bank Street in Findlay Creek? It might be worth the price of admission to see how they plow this during our five months of winter.
Must have been the idea of the same genius who came up with the green paint bike markings that get scrapped away every winter so they can repaint them in the spring.
Brilliant.

DON’T GIVE UP ON US, CANADA
To our friends in Canada:
Don’t give up on America. Donald Trump will be gone in about two years, hopefully sooner. We have been friends for a couple of hundred years. Together we made sacrifices in war and peace. Give us a little more time before you write us off.
