Legacy of Liberals: Not much changed, some things got better, but cost 10x what it should (often because Conservatives fucked everything up, and Liberals corruption to line their own pockets)
Legacy of Conservatives: Everything is worse for everyone, things are more expensive, public assets are sold off to private interests, and maybe $300 worth of easy to point to taxes (license stickers) are removed and heralded as a victory for the average person while costing everyone significantly more than they saved... But the profit margins of the monopolies are slightly better!
I want an NDP government. The Bob Rae one didn't count.
I like how he is a bogeyman, but what Harris did seems to have been forgotten and here we are with Ford.
Probably a testament to the effectiveness of conservative regressivism. Over the years I've heard parents of the Harris generation say there is night and day difference between the children of before and after the destruction Harris wreaked on the education system. They're perpetuating a class of poorly educated will continue to vote against their own interests.
I was in high school in the Rae and then Harris generation. Life in Ontario soured a lot after Harris, it was never as friendly to me.
