then they vote left for unfunded spending

Explain how the Doug Ford victory falls under this with his $400M spent on rushing the beer in grocery stores policy instead of waiting 6 months and getting it for free, or the proposed $800B highway tunnel under the 417 (which would likely be over 1T). I suppose I just don't see the left being the party of unfunded spending, because I don't think he's going to make the profits from this just by selling Ontario Place.

Well that's true, I guess its through a US lens, who can't run those state deficits.

But they bleed over to us, and we tend to follow the same path they do.

I agree, we have that problem in more ways than one.
