No he won't. Like every other populist, the levers of power that flow wealth to the wealthy will become even more entrenched.and start to get the provincial finances under control.
Cutting the gasoline tax by 10 cents......where will the money come from to maintain roads?
Cutting (Ontario portion of) income tax for folks who earn less than $30K while slashing the progressive policies of the previous government to pay for it will end up costing everyone more in the long run.
There are 4,400 avoided deaths every year since coal fired thermal plants were closed in Ontario.
Those (direct and indirect) avoided morbidity costs never show up on a spread sheet......
I had a Hydro One Networks guy that was supposed to show up at 0900 to check my smart meter (it runs 5% too fast and now I have the separate meter to prove it). Got the call at 0910 that he is sick today. I told my wife, "A sunny Friday in the summer, the morning after a new government has promised to kill the Green Energy Act."
Killing the Green Energy Act simply maintains the 125 year old electrical generation and distribution business model that lets 200,000 folks, earning six figures, keep their jobs.....and more money was spent in the last 12 months repairing one reactor at Darlington than all the money paid out to all renewable energy generators.....
