Sounds like more austerity and tax cuts from the libs. They really want the cons to win I guess. Hopefully they aren't thinking about some sort of department to oversee these efficiencies...
The concept that the liberals think they can materialise $28B out of thin air is laughable.
I'm all for higher taxes on the very wealthy.

It has a certain ring to it.
If people gave a shit about where the money is coming from, Doug Ford would be tanking in the polls as he has obviously impossible to fund proposals. Whatever the parties say in their funding blurbs just serves the purpose of telling their potential voter base what's going to happen to their taxes. In the end, the difference always comes from debt and that's OK. So reality tells me funding proposals aren't what wins or loses elections. The efficiencies proposal is great because it works just like it worked for Ford. It's nebulous, it allows for saying you're doing it while not achieving anything with it. Therefore it allows for not doing austerity in reality. Of course it also allows for austerity. It's why I'd look at the rest of the platform details for clues on that.
