but will they re-open temagami's mnr office?

osprey news is reporting that ontario pc leader john tory is advocating a decentralization of government ministries from big cities to rural and northern areas. "tory promised to decentralize the provincial government bureaucracy by setting a target for meaningful decentralization, say ten per cent, and move government offices from toronto into the regions. 'we can give a real shot in the arm by adding these jobs to smaller regional economies,' he said."

don't forget that this is the same ontario pc party that centralized government ministries from rural and northern areas to the big cities in the mid-1990s under mike "the axe" harris. the contempt of the pc party toward ontario's people is simply astounding. do they think we forgot that they closed temagami's mnr office in 1995, throwing over 50 jobs out of town and moving them to north bay?
