Ever wonder how Mcguinty and his Ministries spent your tax dollars? Here are a few examples; Let's start with eHealth a auditor reports a 1 billion dollar waste of tax payers money. In 2009, the former CEO of eHealth gave a speech to the Ontario Hospitals Association at a cost of 25 thousand dollars as she paid her consultants between 200 and 400 dollars and hour to revise, edit, discuss her speech.

After 6 Months on the job she was fired but still got a 317 thousand dollar severance package, but not before she gave herself a 114 thousand dollar bonus for the work she was doing. Then the article said she was appointed to the head of eHealth because she was one to get things done. This should give you a ideal how the Mcguinty government works. Here is a list of some things board members of OLG were spending your tax dollars on. They include: gym memberships worth $250; a $1,500 bar tab at a $3,700 dinner for 38 people; Weight Watchers memberships; club link golf fees; $500 nanny fee so that a vice-president member could attend meetings, the list goes on. This scandal was so big, the entire board of the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corp. (OLG) resigned. The Opposition says the Liberals tried to hide one scandal inside another by releasing an internal audit of Cancer Care Ontario the same day as the auditor general's scathing report into eHealth. The audit shows some of the consulting firms at the centre of the eHealth scandal also received millions of dollars in untendered contracts from Cancer Care Ontario. An Ontario government internal audit has revealed a second spending scandal at Cancer Care Ontario. $75 million was misspent on untendered work, and ill-tracked expense Ontario's Health Minister David Caplan resigned. The move comes as the Auditor-General's Report on the eHealth spending scandal was released. Ontario's eHealth Chairman Alan Hudson Retires; eHealth CEO Sarah Kramer Fired and you wonder why our health care system is in poor shape it is poorly run under Mcguinty .Then the province spent $81 million to build an energy plant that powers a Windsor casino in a senior Liberals minister's riding I would like to note that there were reports that the original cost was to be 40 million and does any body know if this plant is actually up and running or just a waste of taxpayer's money. Buttcon Energy Inc., which operated the plant , announced Aug. 31, 2009 that it had filed a $355-million lawsuit against the OLG. The position of WSIB chair is supposed to be a part-time position with a per diem of $550 per day," said a news release from the Conservatives "Mahoney had somehow managed to bill the taxpayer for $141,328.79 in 2008. Based on the WSIB per diem — this means that the 'part-time' WSIB chair collected 257 per diems — more per diems, in fact, than there are working days in the year." Then Mcguinty paid Bruce power 60 million dollars not to produce power in 2009 and is paying up to 80 cents a kilowatt for green energy in 20 year contracts. This green energy cost 20 x more to produce than nuclear power which brings me to the point who can afford the 41.8% projected increase in hydro by 2015 on top of all the increase we had already. When Mcguinty took office hydro was 4.5 cents a Killowatt now at peak time it is 9.9 cents a Killowatt like I say up to another 41.8 % increase by 2015 .The truth of the matter is the tax payer will never know the extent of Mcguinty's Liberal government mismanagement of Ontario tax dollars. Now I would like you to go to Dalton McGuinty can't be trusted on Taxes
