Premier Dalton Mcguinty: Majority Government

Health Consultant Dept: If the voters I spoke to this week are any indication, the race is up for grabs. In a series of interviews throughout a riding that includes tidy suburban homes, newish condo developments and massive high rises, I found people who were singularly unimpressed by the major party leaders and who in most cases were seeking the least worst alternative. Kohalmi voted Progressive Conservative four years ago. And he agrees with Hudak that Liberal premier Dalton McGuinty s plan to subsidize jobs for about 1,200 new Canadian professionalsthe Conservatives call them foreign workers is discriminatory. Don Valley East is a riding that Tim Hudak s Tories need if they are to form a majority government in Ontario. It has been Liberal provincially since its creation in 1999. But Stephen Harper s Conservatives won the Toronto riding federally in May and Hudak hopes his party will do the same. I m disappointed in what I ve seen, health consultant Steve Kohalmi told me as we talked in his driveway. I don t think the candidates understand their own issues. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
