Dear Lou,

I understand you’re reaching out to rural Ontarians for dialogue and feedback of issues. I decided to consult my dictionary to help explain what the Ontario Liberal Party has personally brought to my region where I once enjoyed and gratefully appreciated a peaceful and productive way of life in rural Ontario.

op·pres·sion [uh-presh-uh n] noun 1. the exercise of authority or power in a burdensome, cruel, or unjust manner.

ne·glect [ni-glekt] 1. to pay no attention or too little attention to; disregard or slight: 2. to be remiss in the care or treatment of: 3. to omit, through indifference or carelessness: 4. to fail to carry out or perform (orders, duties, etc.): 5. to fail to take or use: to neglect no precaution.

dis·har·mo·ny [dis-hahr-muh-nee] noun, plural dis·har·mo·nies. 1. lack of harmony; discord. 2. something discordant.

mis·trust [mis-truhst] noun 1. lack of trust or confidence; distrust.

dam·age [dam-ij] noun 1. injury or harm that reduces value or usefulness

in·so·lence [in-suh-luh ns] noun 1. contemptuously rude or impertinent behavior or speech.

The Liberal party can take credit for this unprecedented discord although it doesn’t fully absolve some of the opposition members (NDP) who gleefully joined you in spirit.     Here is some old stuff that hit the Liberal party inbox quite a long time ago (and was left unattended to). While it might help your memory a little bit today, trust me it doesn’t even scratch the surface Lou. You can’t undo years of insensitive and mindless neglect….
