Après quelque temps, l'amendement à la motion est mis aux voix comme suit:- |
|
|
That the motion moved by the Minister of Finance on March 26, 2009, "that this House approves in general the budgetary policy of the government," be amended by deleting the words after "that this House" and adding the following: |
|
|
|
"acknowledges that Budget 2009 brings in the biggest deficit in Ontario's history of $14 billion, when the McGuinty Liberals had a $6 billion surplus just last year; and |
|
|
|
acknowledges that under this government's watch, nearly 300,000 manufacturing jobs have disappeared, with another 135,000 expected to be lost this year; and |
|
|
|
acknowledges that the Premier broke his promise not to raise taxes after the 2003 election by imposing a health tax of up to $900; and |
|
|
|
acknowledges that the Premier again broke his promise with this budget by announcing his scheme to create a single sales tax - the biggest tax grab in Ontario's history that will force people to pay taxes on everything from a cup of coffee to funeral services; and |
|
|
|
acknowledges that serial promise-breaking on tax increases, coupled with serial spending and mismanagement of public money, will not be tolerated by the people of Ontario. |
|
|
|
Therefore, this government has lost the confidence of this House." |
