Does anyone know why Peter Fonseca's website says he's the MPP for Mississauga East? Does he know the riding of Mississauga East no longer exists and that he's actually the MPP for Mississauga East-Cooksville?
Or how about Kuldip Kular, who appears to think he's the MPP for Bramalea-Gore-Malton-Springdale, when he's actually the MPP for Bramalea-Gore-Malton.
Am I just expecting too much of our local reps?
Charles Sousa doesn't even appear to have a website yet. You'd think that'd be the first order of business, since I'm sure that if anyone is looking to contact or learn about their MPP, they will first try the Internet.
Amrit Mangat, in Mississauga-Brampton South, has a website come up if you google her name, but if you click on www.amritmangat.ca, nothing happens.
It has been three months since E-day. Maybe everyone should do what Mississauga-Erindale MPP Harinder Takhar did: hold a competition for high school kids and get the winner to design your website. Everybody wins.
Takhar -- who has branded himself as "Takhar - Experience. Leadership. Results." -- has his strange website, designed by the high school student contest winner. It's actually a good website, it's just different than other political websites. And the best part, it has the correct riding on it!
As does the website of Bob Delaney, Mississauga-Streetsville MPP.

It looks like they must be waiting for this Tweedle-dum Tweedle-dee “Pit Bull Bill 132 Legislation” to blow over because destroying an obviously harmless puppy dog on the Merry Christmas into a New Year 2008 doesn’t express many Tidings of Joy for the Harris decima polls while the House of Commons and Queen’s Park shut down.
They should have asked kindergarten students to draft out extending the exoneration boundaries around Rambo before the same Bill euthanized their e-mail sights.

Perhaps your next blog should be a critque about why MPPs should be earning over $200,000 for doing so little that you have nothing of importance to critique as this blog demonstrates.

Wayne,
It was McGuinty's government who brought in the provincial 'pit bull' ban.
Harris did allow a change to the Municipalities Act so that Kitchener could enact their breed ban over ten years ago - they excluded purebred dogs, by the way. Harris has been out of office for awhile now.

The Harris Decima/poll is the research company used to monitor public opinion swing before calling the federal election that has little to do with the fellow who brought in downloading so he could improve his golf.
Harris/Eves may be out of office but the legacy still manages the Attorney Generals Office. Lynn McArdle's the same Attorney General's barrister who quashed the Kimberly Roger's inquiry that McGuinty's used to bump in new Health taxes increases vs the Tax Payers Protection Act that’s also in the statues.
I would have anticipated McGuinty should have followed unilaterally the same path with his $7000 settlement pay out to Municipal Affairs Tony Clement, who changed the Act, while Allan Rock was making the $2.1 million out of court settlement. When the ”Pooling” had been installed contradictory to the $52 billion EI surplus under the duress of the Mississauga property taxes, Kitchener was omitted from paying into our GTA pooling mandate?
Why should Mississauga pay for Kitcheners Animal Cultures if it didn’t work over the Mississauga- Toronto Transit connection dispute either?

McGuinty’s Minister of Industries, Sandra Pupatello said on October 24 2001 “the Brian Mulroney government used this same company to create the same kind of program, and it too did not work ….”the same company, alleging fraud, negligent misrepresentation and professional negligence”……”actively conspired to conceal information from the crown."….
