Remember how canceling the gas plant was such a big deal? I bet the apologists will be out in force explaining how the fact that we are on the hook for this abjectly corrupt effort to transfer billions of dollars of unearned benefit to Ford’s wealthy developer friends/donors is, “ToTaLlY dIfFeReNt.”
To who? Hudak also vowed to cancel said plant if he won. Horwath would never say, but also strongly hinted that she would do the same if she won. There wasn’t anyone in the limelight opposed to it.
Well…I mean…it’s still on the Ontario PC party website list of 10 Things Kathleen Wynne would like you to forget so it was a big deal Doug Ford’s party during that election.
There are also hundreds of articles from that period where various PC talking heads spouted off about it and the offshore trolls posted a bunch of memes on Facebook about it and there were lawn signs all over the province.
Are you sure you want to try this bullshit with me today, @Rocket?
Oh, you were referring to the rabble rousing from the ‘opponents’ to stir pot after the fact despite acknowledging that they would do the exact same thing originally? I thought you were pointing to someone who actually saw it as a big deal, not a pretend one to score fake political points.
You’re boring. It’s always the same contrarian bad faith nonsense with you. Look me up if you learn any new songs.
There goes the the ad hominem waterworks again. If you have some actual reason for us to think that there was a big deal, let it be known, but clearly nobody opposed it. A dog and pony show about how the government failed by doing what was considered an excellent idea immediately beforehand does not make for an actual big deal, merely entertainment.
So my comment, directed at the positions you always maintain, was an ad hominem?
Interesting…
