Orders of the Day |
Ordre du Jour |
|
The Order of the Day for resuming the Adjourned Debate on the Motion for an Address in Reply to the Speech of Her Honour the Lieutenant Governor at the Opening of the Session having been read, The debate was resumed, and after some time, Mr. McGuinty moved, That the motion be amended by adding the following thereto:- "Whereas the Throne Speech was an empty speech from an arrogant government; and |
|
|
Whereas the Harris government clearly wished to avoid taking responsibility for its decisions to double the size of the Premier's office, give 30 percent raises to its top political staff and shower patronage on the likes of Al McLean by allowing the Legislature to sit only seven days in the first ten months of this year; and Whereas the Harris government failed to signal a new approach, failed to outline a vision for taking all Ontarians boldly into the new millennium and failed to address the real concerns of Ontario residents; and Whereas the Throne Speech was silent on such important issues as hospital deficits, sky high tuition, carnage on our highways, gridlock on our streets, and homelessness in our communities; and Whereas the Harris government is clearly out of touch and its Throne Speech proved it has the wrong priorities; This House profoundly regrets that the Harris government continues to act in such an arrogant manner on an agenda which will continue to cause significant hardship for our youngest, our oldest, our sickest and our least fortunate in society." |
