You know the ones.. telling us how they're investing in this and that and the other. How Ontario is improving and thriving.

I'll leave my opinion aside to reduce bias, but hey, my comment history is public.

Much love!

I agree with all of your points. If it keeps happening no matter the party and no matter the reality, then it's nothing short of a systemic problem.

    My problem and why I'm not jumping straight against the ads themselves is that ads or not, these governments rarely represent us. I've been here since 2005 and while the OLP gov'ts have done some material contributions for us, it's always been tinker round the edges, bare minimum shit. The PC gov'ts being actively harmful. So I see the ads issue as a minor symptom that I don't focus on. I need the gov't to represents working people, not corpos - in other words the vast majority, not the minority at the top.
