What Bob says on issues that matter in western Mississauga

Bob's blogs and speeches

Bob Delaney speaks up on behalf of the western Mississauga neighbourhoods of Lisgar, Meadowvale, and Streetsville. Bob spoke up on behalf of commuters in 2003 and 2004, and by 2005, the new Lisgar GO Train Station was announced. Working with Ward 9 Councillor Pat Saito, Bob ensured that the project was completed ahead of schedule, and within budget. It opened in September of 2007. Bob spoke up on behalf of hospital users and ensured that Ontario approved the capital plan for Credit Valley Hospital's Phase II. The project is now in service, and was completed ahead of schedule and within budget in 2011.

Projects Bob Delaney backs get built. The Streetsville and Meadowvale GO Train stations were both upgraded and extended to handle GO's 12-car trains. The Milton Line was the first to put into service GO's new, quieter, more fuel-efficient diesels so that two extra cars could be added to each existing GO Train. One completely new GO Train was added in the morning, and one in the afternoon.

Video: Definitive word on taxes in Ontario
Opposition Day motions do not have to make sense to be debated, but I had the last word on this nonsensical Conservative resolution in May. Check out what happens when you set rhetoric beside the facts. Hint: tax rhetoric loses, and it was fun too. Enjoy!
Video: The voodoo economic of Conservative hydro debt machinations
As the purple rhetoric gets cranked up, especially about electricity, people need real facts and not patent political nonsense. Above is a short primer on what the debt retirement charge is all about and how it came to be. Bob spoke on the debt retirement charge in the Legislature in May 2011.
The Chicken Little E-Mail: the definitive response
This poison pen e-mail that blames the Premier of Ontario for just about everything that has gone up in price needs a big reality check. It's time to call it what it is: bovine droppings. Here is the answer to it.
Your personal and business taxes are lower now than they were eight years ago
A value-added tax dispenses with the tax-upon-tax-upon-tax ad infinitum that permeates through the Ontario economy with the regressive, expensive, obsolete and stupid PST. A value-added tax (VAT) is what the rest of the world uses applies to most things.
