Ontario’s Liberal Government Suffers Massive Electoral Defeat

Jun 21, 2018 by

Ontario is the most populous of Canada’s ten provinces, with about 13.5 million souls, accounting for nearly 40 percent of the population of the country, most of whom live within a one or two hour drive from the border with the United States. The province has the nation’s capital, Ottawa, as well as its largest city, Toronto. So what happens in Ontario affects much of the rest of the country.

As our American friends may have read, in the recent provincial election the Progressive Conservatives were swept to a resounding victory, trouncing the socialist Liberals after their confident fifteen-year reign, now reduced to a mere seven seats in the 154 seat legislature, which has not happened to the Liberal Party since Confederation in 1867. This from their comfortable 55-seat majority before the election, which gave the radical Liberal premier, Kathleen Wynne, and her cabinet, power to do anything they pretty much pleased. Strangely, Ms. Wynne predicted their loss a few days before the election, but nothing of this Carthaginian magnitude. Their puny seven seats is one shy even of “official party status,” which puts them more or less at the whim of the Conservatives, under their nemesis and Premier-elect, Doug Ford, the brother of former embattled Toronto mayor Rob Ford (who died of cancer in 2014). Both brothers proclaimed themselves, Trump-style, “for the people,” promising to slash government waste and implement policies for the common man, rather than the connected elites.

But the damage may be done.

Professor Jordan Peterson described Kathleen Wynne as the “most dangerous woman in Canada,” an ideologue, far more to the left than your average Liberal, whose maudlin compassion masks a deeply sinister agenda. Indeed. She is a self-proclaimed lesbian, coming out, as the saying goes, at the tender age of 37, abandoning her husband and three children to enter into a union, of sorts, with someone of the same sex, two months after such “marriage” was legalized in Canada in 2005. Since then she has been an unabashed promoter of homosexual and other “rights” of a deviant culture.

Here is just some of the Liberal baggage that Premier-elect Ford inherits:
