If there ever was a question that "Father Goosee" McGuinty is anti-grey, then look no further

Ontario moves to protect young teachers’ jobs

Having been on the threshold of, and contributed mightily to, nearly every social benefit program we have today, Medicare, OHIP, Old Age Security, etc., it is disparaging to realize that I have now been relegated to the dust bin by a pipsqueak who has made a bollocks of running a government.

McGuinty's record regarding seniors has been nothing short of abysmal, as follows:

• Upon assuming office, the first thing he did was rescind legislation already passed by Ernie Eves granting seniors as property tax exemption
• He then took the cap of hydro rates so that the cost of electricity has more than tripled in the past seven years.
• Although he made a great todo about lowering insurance rates, the legislation merely gave the insurance companies an incentive if they kept rate increases to 10%.
• His much touted benefits package, aimed at helping lower income groups, provided an annual $1,500 subsidy for children (later raised by $1,000), and a $500 Senior's Property Tax Grant. However, the seniors' grant was geared to income so that my grant amounted to $23.00.

Now he is trying to force a pay freeze on teachers by pitting younger teachers against older ones. See:
Ontario moves to protect young teachers’ jobs. For example: "The OECTA deal does not include a general wage increase, though it allows for pay increases for newer teachers who are still moving up the salary grid. That increase is funded by all teachers taking three unpaid days off in the second year of the contract."

The guy is political hack, and if Liberals are elected in the bi-elections of Vaughan and Kichener-Waterloo, then the voters in those two ridings deserve what they get.

An update:

Elementary teachers will take their chances with individual boards

“Never have we seen such an insidious assault of this magnitude,” he said. “No government in Ontario, of any political stripe, has ever, ever made this kind of blunt force strike at the heart of any of its public sector workers.”
