Salt-of-the-Earth Randy Hillier did something for me that no one else ever could. Eternal country boy Hillier cut like the proverbial knife through my deep-seated cynicism for politicians of all political stripes who I sincerely believe are, for the most part, a big waste of time. My admiration for Hillier predates his election as an MPP for Lanark-Frontenac-Lennox and Addington to out of touch Queen’s Park. Out in the boonies where Hillier hails from, the lowing of cattle is much preferable to the ramblings of big city-politicians. Hillier’s unexpected-to-the-other-side arrival to provincial politics was the only sign of hope in the last election.
