Troy McHarg, Town Clerk The actions of the McGuinty governmenî came under fire when provincial Conservative Party head John Tory stopped in Milton last Friday. The Opposition leader was in town 10 deliver a speech ai a Milton Chamber of Commerce lunch event ai Rattlesnake Point Golf Club. He started by complimentîng Halton MPP Ted Chudleigh, calling him a source of reliable support and advice. He then spoke ai length about the Liberal governments spending habits, dubbing the 2006 budget the "pay more, get less budget." "Tbis government îs addicted to spending," he said. 'They think that just hy spendîng more, problems wîll go away. There is no attempi to look ai smarîer spending." Torn' pointed oui that v.hile Premier Dalton NitGuini> proinisecl not to raîse taxes, bc p)rit ededl to imiplemienit a health-care sys- tem improve by leaps and said, noting John Tory that while some wait list tîmes have improved, others have deteriorated. He also mentioned that there's a lack of available doctors in Milton and north Halton. In addition, Tory cniticized the Liberals' cut t0 the agricul- ture portion of the budget, eall- ing the governments record of support for the provinces faren- ers "disgraceful." "Despite ail of the McGumnty Liberal taxing and spending, the people of Halton are seeing no real results in health care, trans- portation or agriculture,' he said, Hc hniefly discussed tbe cc- trci> situation in Ontario - something lie saîd îs building to as crîsîs point. lic noted hc lîîîds it strange provincial governinent is goîng "full steam ahead" with the dlo- sure of coal fire generating plants. He said ils ironic that the same premier whos closing the plants is also saying theres going to be brownouts and hlackouts in Ontaro. Tory went on to say he thinks McGuinty should've or could've balanced the budget this year, since the Ontario government had $3 billion in unanticipated revenue. "It can be done if the wmll is there," he said. He also said he feels the cul- ture of the current government focuses on how much money is spent, însîead of on getîing value for the money. "t really believe ils urne for a change in attitude,' he remarked. "The people of Milton deserve a premier who vvill show some real leadership and good fiscal management."
