Richards Ontario voters have created a monster by putting putting the New Democrats into government, said the provincial provincial Progressive Conservative Conservative Finance Critic recently. "We have to continue focusing focusing attention on the budget," budget," said Chris Stockwell, the Tory MPP from Etobicoke, Etobicoke, Toronto. He made that comment in an interview with The Canadian Statesman, Statesman, on Wednesday, May 29. Mr. Stockwell was in Bowmanville on his way to Peterborough with the Mike. Harris Task Force on the NDP Budget. The provincial budget brought down by the NDP government is $52.7 billion. "We are getting reports in every town we've been in and the people are dumping all over the socialists." The provincial Tories are going to try their best to keep the budget in the news until "the NDP begin to rethink rethink their policies, he said. Only about 20 per cent of the Ontario voters actually, approve and support the new provincial budget; Mr. Stockwell said. And even then, he added, those are the die-hards. The others are against it. The NDP are not living up to their promises, he said, and will have trouble doing so anyway. "Just look at education, Mr. Stockwell added, "Board trustees are not exactly dancing in the streets over this budget," he said. "During "During the election, the party said they would provide 60 per cent of educational funding funding if they were in power. "If anything, the education education portion is decreasing. "That is just one example of the NDP not being able to fulfill promises they made." What other bones did Mr. Stockwell pick? How about this one: The six per cent salary increase the NDP government gave themselves. To top it off. said Mr. Stockwell, the NDP government government has dealt border-towns a hard blow with the 30 per cent gas tax. To add more fuel to the fire, the NDP increased increased taxes on cigarettes and alcohol. All of this means consumers consumers are leaving the province province in droves to buy goods south of the border. "Some small border towns are beginning to look. like the Love Canal," said Mr. Stockwell. The empty streets signify the cutbacks and the lost money due to business clo sures. Naturally, the Tory finance finance critic believes that the Progressive Conservatives would have done things dif- tlv. ed t payments, ia freed-up employ- capped transfer frozen hiring, and money to create ment." The P.C.'s didn't stand a chance in the last election because "people didn't trust us," Mr. Stockwell said. And how does he account for this lack of trust? Mr. Stockwell blames Prime Minister Brian Mul- roney.
