You know, if the province of #Ontario had kept the #Highway407 instead of selling it (thx, Harris), it would be _paid off_ by now, and it would be handling the traffic that the stupid #Highway413 is intended to alleviate. Instead, we get a new highway we don't need (paid for by tax $$), and the 407 remains criminally underutilized.

What a series of absolutely stupid decisions. Thanks #Conservatives! you jackasses.
