Lets call a spade, a spade.
This is a tax grab disguised as a program to make it 'safer for our kids'. 

The most important comment at the news conference, was Bill Blair saying that 7-9 BILLION dollars of profit currently goes to organized crime 'that does nothing for the community'. In effect, the truth is that the government wants in  on these huge profits, child safety be damned. Think about it - you have cash starved provincial governments with large debts (especially Ont)...do you think Kathy is thinking child safety ? Hilarious - this is a pot of gold she can't wait to capitalize on. With her mismanagement of Ontario finances and an ever escalating Sunshine List of over-paid public service parasites, she needs every easy dime she can get (natural gas tax anyone?).

Meanwhile, the dufus we call 'Sunny Ways' has elections coming up in two key (currently Liberal) provinces. Kathy & Christy are waiting! Gotta get things in motion. Keep those gullible voters happy.
