I would tend to agree, but (there's always a "but", isn't there?) we have to remain open to the possibility that perhaps our perceptions are incorrect.

Look, I'm no fan of Wynne, carbon taxes/cap-and-trade fees, the Green Energy series of fiascoes, the crippling long-term debt, etc etc. I will not vote for her. Full stop.

But the numbers are what the numbers are. And if they are correct - and I have no reason to dispute them - maybe, just maybe, things aren't as bad as we've been led to believe.
