Boring Election Campaign

The verbal swipes being exchanged between the Ontario Liberals and the federal Conservatives is an unfortunate distraction from those issues that need to be discussed. These types of public squabbles which tend to serve only the interests of the political parties involved does little in providing voters with meaningful information. Ontarians have been hoodwinked long enough. Election campaigns propelled by mudslinging and annoying toothless slogans that fail to communicate anything of real significance will simply have some voters tuning out. We need to see the three main party leaders placing more emphasis on where they are headed and not where we have been. Perhaps a televised public debate will offer some clarity to this less than clear campaign.
