After one top-secret call, last night, Benedict Baldy had a top-secret gathering with various big wheels in the Toronto Jewish community. There, agog attendees were told that (a) BB is holding out for a Hudak PC loss so that (b) he can then run for leader.

Attendees thereafter rushed to the phones to relate the bizarro BB strategy to others, who were equally gobsmacked. More calls were made.

Benedict Baldy: he’s rarely smart, but he’s often entertaining.

We Ontario Liberals are delighted he’s all yours now, Team Tea Party. Good luck, etc.

…it means we work even harder, relentlessly, until the last vote is cast on Thursday.

That’s what it means.

Hillier didn’t declare leadership expenses, he didn’t pay taxes on those expenses, and a far-right Conservative MP used his taxpayer-funded office to help Hillier incur the expenses.

When will Hudak finally fire this creep?

Hillier submitted the invoices from Reid — $7,933.40, primarily for printing costs — in an attempt to prove he had hired other people to do work Hall hadn’t. Hall ultimately won that case and was paid just over half the amount — roughly $2,750 — he was seeking.

The photocopier was run from a second-floor office in the same building as Hillier and Reid’s shared constituency office. The two Conservative politicians represent Lanark-Frontenac-Lennox and Addington in their respective legislatures.

Hat trick is the video the Cons tried to suppress.

It’s also something that you may be hearing a lot about tomorrow – as rumours persist that Stephen Harper will be in town to stump for Tim Hudak. Why is that significant? Well, go back to August 2, 2011: on that day, Harper calls for a “hat trick” – that is, for the same Conservative cabal to run the country, the GTA and Ontario.

Wow. Never thought I’d see something like this.

The Sun chain refuses to endorse Tim Hudak – they actually liken him to a cartoonish Mr. Bean – and say that, while they wanted to endorse him, they just couldn’t bring themselves to do it. He’s been a failure, they say.

Wow.

This pamphlet is being circulated, tonight, in Brampton ridings.  As you can see at the bottom, it is expressly authorized by “the C.F.O. of the Ontario P.C. Party.”

Along with being hateful, the PC ad is completely false.  It is wrong.  It is B.S. The true facts are found here.

For a party that started the campaign attacking “foreign” workers, and is now ending it attacking “foreign” students, I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised.  But it’s pretty disgusting, nonetheless.  And it’s yet another reason why the Hudak PCs blew a near-20-point lead, I’d say.

In a newsletter to clients, Cooper warned the Harper government it was literally in danger of repeating the deflationary policies that caused the 1929 stock market crash and the Great Depression.

She went on to say that the fiscal tightening promised by Harper and Flaherty could, in fact, lead to an economic “rout.”

If those chilling words don’t give investors, job hunters — and voters in P.E.I., Manitoba and Ontario — cause for reflection, nothing will. The decisions we make now will determine our economic future in the months and years ahead. And if we make the wrong decision — as Depression-era President Herbert Hoover did, Cooper noted, with rash fiscal belt-tightening — we could be plunged into another recession, or worse.

We have a choice here, and it’s an important one.

Who do you want negotiating Ontario’s health care with Stephen Harper?

A vote for her is a vote for him: Hudak Helper.

Our guy protects health care. Theirs – and their campaign leadership – hawk cigs to kids.

UPDATE: Oh, and this.
