I couldn't agree more, do what you can to save horse racing in Ontario. In the next provincial election it will be my mission to see Dalton get ousted, the man is just plain bad for Ontario. In the previous election i did everything i could to support the other parties, i have never liked Dalton from the beginning and now that he is messing with horse racing it has become personal.
Even if i had no interest in horse racing i would still feel the same way in regards to what he is about to do to the economy in Ontario, the math just doesn't add up. You can't put that many people out of work and expect the economy to keep it's head above water.
You would have to be a complete idiot to think that a new casino in Toronto could generate enough money to cover the loss of revenue from.....
1 - Horse racing, an inferior product will bring in less revenue and therefore less taxes collected.
2 - Fallsview and Casinorama will more than likely go out of business and again, more unemployment and a loss of tax revenue.
3 - Over 60 000 people on unemployment and no tax revenue being collected. As well as the money that will have to be spent to retrain all these people on unemployment.
The kicker for me is the fact that Dalton wants to hire an American firm to run the new casino, therefore even more revenue leaving the country.
The liberals are running this province into the ground, step up and do what you can to save horse racing, the provincial economy, and the next generations future.
