The sweetest sound in Ontario politics has been that of whistle-blowing, but the Liberal government is doing its best to silence it. This has been shown in the aptly named “bullygate.

Politics in Ontario has become deadly serious, and it has had to turn the clock back two decades to find a few laughs. These came when former premier William Davis spoke to the recent Progressive Conservative convention.

The Ontario Liberals are accusing new Progressive Conservative leader John Tory of winning his job because he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and not on merit, but the public may find this hard to swallow.

A gravy train that has helped maintain many retired Ontario premiers in their comfy Florida condos is no longer providing an easy ride, and some must feel wary of stepping on board.

Ontario’s Progressive Conservatives don’t have leadership races – they are more like public executions.

A former candidate for leader of the Ontario New Democratic Party and scourge of any in it who dared backslide has been pictured in wide-brimmed straw hat, sitting on his tractor in his vineyards and musing on his life as a gentleman farmer.

Premier Dalton McGuinty promised to have the squeakiest clean government ever, but he seems to be running out of Tide.

Forget Premier Dalton McGuinty’s broken promises and all those warnings medicare is collapsing—Ontario has a deeper worry. This is how it will cope if one of its political parties chooses a leader with the same name as his party.

Premier Dalton McGuinty has cleared himself of blame for his spectacular slide in popularity. He is putting the blame on his communications staff.

A candidate in the race to lead Ontario’s Progressive Conservative Party is raising people almost from the dead to support him — and it is an impressive performance.
