but hey what could wrong from this govt thrashing about looking for some positive political spin to hang their hat's on

can you say energy file
can you say cash for influence
can you say greenbelt​ legislation that started this ball to roll merrily along
and a litany of scandals that have been the bane of all Ontarians for the past 15 years
what could possibly go?
