Election Day

Today's the day to finally put the Liberals out to pass and give Stephen Harper his much deserved Majority Government that Harper has been asking for. I want to remind Canadians when you go to cast your ballot think long and hard about where you place your ballot. What kind of Canada do you want? Do you want a Canada run by Jack Layton and the loony left where government handouts rule the day or do you want a Canada run by Stephen Harper and his firm hand on the economy and let him stay the course as Canada continues the recovery. If you are seriously are looking at Jack Layton I ask you to seriously look at your local NDP canidate if they were to win and become the governing party do they have the competence to do a job as a Cabinet Minister? If you look honestly at the NDP roster of Candidates how many of them would you trust running the show? it's easy to play armchair quarterback when you never have had to hold power and actually make the tough decisions? makes one just a tad nervous.
Now get out and vote! The future of your country depends on it!

Interesting news from the Ingersoll School closings...

Looks like the Thames Valley School Board didn't quite figure it out when they were doing there calculations on enrollment when they went thru the Ingersoll ARC. First off the new school in North Ingersoll won't be ready in time for the first day in September, the board is blaming the weather and that pesky little Ontario Municipal Board hearing that Ingersoll resident Steve Caskey lanched and then later dropped, delaying it just long enough so it won't be ready till January 2012. The other interesting gaffe that has recently come out is that when it was talked about in the ARC every school in Ingersoll would have all day every day kindergarten, well not so fast my friend turns out that Harris Heights and Princess Ann will be offering the programs and the North Ingersoll school will not, enrollment numbers for the Kindergarten has exceeded the numbers that the Board had projected and seems now there won't be enough space to offer it. The other problem is there is nothing they can do to fix the problem untill after this school year is over, TVDSB can't put a portable up with it being a new school til after the first year. As much as the board likes to think that their projections are right maybe it's time for the people that come up with the numbers to be held accountable for what they say when it comes to the numbers they are projecting, because there is nothing worse than opening a new school only to find out the building will not beable to hold the school population. I know it'll turn out to be a painful lesson for them now but in the end they could be a little more accurate for next time.
