A budget plan from fantasyland (Waterloo Record Editorial)
So overly optimistic were Finance Minister Charles Sousa’s predictions this week in his Fall Economic Statement, they belonged at Canada’s Wonderland, not Queen’s Park. They’re products of some fantasy world, a kingdom of plastic mountains and mechanical unicorns where every wish, however ridiculous, comes true for a while. The trouble is, when you leave, you’re back in the real world.

Labour unrest rally cries heard throughout North Bay

“Fair people, fair say!” and “We want contracts!” and “Save North Bay!” echoed down the block
Rally calls for government action
About 200 workers chanted and waved placards and flags outside Nipissing MPP Vic Fedeli’s constituency office early Friday calling for an end to labour unrest and hospital cuts in North Bay.
Striking Nipissing University professors, locked-out Ontario Northland Transportation Commission workers and beleaguered North Bay Regional Health Centre staff joined with members of the North Bay and District Labour Council in demanding that the provincial government take action to quell the employment upheaval and to put an end the hospital cutbacks.
“We want a North Bay that’s vibrant,” said Labour Council President Henri Giroux, calling on Premier Kathleen Wynne to intervene in the ongoing labour disputes at the university and ONTC and to reverse bed closures and job cuts at the local hospital. “It’s all a community fight.”
Fedeli told the crowd of workers, which spilled out onto Main Street in front his office, that he’s fighting for them everyday at Queen’s Park.
