YIKES!!!  An article by the disastrous and despicable Tom Gunton. I thought he was dead and buried after his horrible turn as the economic guru and political mentor to former BC NDP Premier Glen Clark.  Gunton is the classic over-tax and over-spend Dipper. Gunton was named deputy minister responsible for coordination of policy and communications functions, and rapidly became recognized as the most important official in the Clark government.  His fingerprints were all over the fudgit-budget scandal  as Clark campaigned on the false claims of balanced budgets.

Gunton's approach to communications out of the Office of the Premier?  If it could prove politically costly... lie and keep on lying. 

The BC NDP eight consecutive deficit budgets drove the province into have-not status for the first time in history and it took years to dig out from that economic catastrophe.  Ontario voters should be familiar with the situation having the Ontario Liberals (your version of the BC NDP) in charge.
