Well Hudak is done and not just the party but him as well. Amen!
On top of that, the Cons lost more seats.
Did I want a Liberal majority? Not really. But I'll take what I can get as long as Hudak's name isn't attached to it.
I won't go into details but people in Ontario luckily missed the bullet on this one.
Harper's next and then we can get back to taking this country out of draconian ideas and ideals. Back to the people and not the 1% masters.
Listen to the wind.
Surprising many folks, the Liberals won a majority in Quebec a few weeks ago (second largest province in Canada)
Surprising more folks, the Liberals won a majority in Ontario yesterday (largest province in Canada).
Two provinces representing over 62% of the population recently elected majority Liberal governments.
Are you listening Mr Harper?
Listen to the wind.
Last year the folks of British Columbia also elected a majority Liberal government (third largest province in Canada).
That makes it: three largest provinces representing 75% of the population recently elected majority Liberal governments.
Are you listening Mr Harper?
Listen to the wind.
It will be no surprise when Canada finally kicks the Harper government out of office next year. The extreme right (Tea Party) may be influential in the USA but it (Reform) is now out of flavour in this country.
She is from Richmond Hill
I thought anything north of Steeles Avenue was Northern Ontario
"knows there is a northern ontario ."
Of course Northern Ontario is important to the people who live there. However, reality is that, despite its vast territory, the region represents a very small percentage of the Ontario population and accounts for seven seats (out of 107). Of the seven seats, the NDP elected five members and the Liberals two. No Conservative. Same old, same old for that region.
If you look at Eastern Ontario, with a much larger population, you see blue everywhere (except Ottawa). It has been that way for a very long time. The same is true for South-Western Ontario (except for Windsor).
The coloured map says it all:
Al the end of the day, while my part of the world (Eastern Ontario) generally voted blue, we all accept that the totality of the province population elected a red majority government.
And life does go on.
if Wynne keeps on killing the private sector the public sector dies with it so hudak being upfront not the worse thing ever ....I don't trust the guy but what do people think is gonna happen if wynne destroys all these towns with industries shutting down they think the teachers and police will keep there jobs half a town has to leave to find work out west ...
Where is Wynne killing jobs? Every business that has closed up or left Ontario has never said it was because of taxes or hydro costs or anything else that had to do with the Province. We're forced in a global economy and that is what is causing the changes. To me what is killing jobs is Free Trade. Our corporate leaders and the banks and the politicians set us up for their own benefit.
- First send our jobs to Mexico and offshore.
- Then as the jobs disappear say the problem are the unions.
- Make more profit from slave wages in Mexico and offshore
- People in N. America eventually go along with blaming the unions and the unions get tossed.
- Now wages go down and benefits go down or disappear and corporations and banks are making more money.
We bought into this free trade scam and it’s destroying our world and futures.
Wynne is far from perfect. Personally I was more hoping for NDP. But at least I woke up this morning relieved that Hudak isn’t going to be in control of my life.
O wait I just remember wynne plans on giving business our tax dollars now making it cheaper for them to operate in Ontario just give them our money to run a business in ontario ..
Not sure what you mean by that. Hudak wanted an across the board cut to all corporations. In the past Wynne and the Liberals were selective as to who got any money, but Hudak just wanted to give it to everyone.
"I hope they keep fighting the fight."
So do I. It does not really matter which centrist party forms the government. You need some intelligent opposition to keep them on track.
Unfortunately, the current brand of "conservatives" is not what folks from Ontario approve or desire. If the conservatives ever want to regain support from voters, they would have to forget their extreme right wing policies and move towards the middle, like Bill Davis did a generation ago. And yes, like many Ontarians I voted for Bill Davis, the progressive-conservative.
"It will be interesting to see if the women make any difference to governance."
Based on what we have seen in Newfoundland, British Columbia, Quebec and Alberta... all provincial governments recently managed by women. I frankly do not think so! 
I am also a "feminist" who believes gender should not and does not make a difference.
