BarrieToday welcomes letters to the editor at [email protected]. Please include your full name, daytime phone number and address (for verification of authorship, not publication). The following letter is in response to ''Every dollar counts': MPP urges feds to stop carbon tax hike,' published March 29, and the recent provincial and federal budgets.
Regarding the recent news release you published from Barrie-Innisfil MPP Andrea Khanjin, MPP Khanjin recognizes that hard-working families across this province are struggling with the rising cost of living and then she takes a shot at the federal government about carbon taxes.
Well, we just had a provincial budget that did nothing or very little to provide any relief for the "hard-working families across the province." The budget spending focus seems to be on building more highways, infrastructure and the business sector.
Isn't this like the pot calling the kettle black?
