Is it possible for a government to cut $10 billion in spending and more than 19,000 jobs without affecting the quality of the services delivered to the public?
No.

Sometimes it is necessary to question the thoughts of senior governments. As the federal government seeks to eliminate thousands of jobs from departments across Canada, you must question how decisions were arrived at.
Similarly, in Ontario we have already seen the announcement of Ontario Tourism Information Services closing facilities in the Northwest and at four other locations in Canada. On April 11, the Globe and Mail published a story “Ontario eyes energy sector overhaul”. Why would a municipal government want to sell off its hydro distribution company?

Perhaps there is an opportunity for Rainy River with the announcement that the province will not be reopening its seasonal Travel Information Centre .
