Ontario NDP pour cold water on Tory efforts to force election over $1.1-billion cost of cancelled gas plants

TORONTO — Ontario’s New Democrats poured cold water Wednesday on efforts by the Progressive Conservatives to force a snap election over the $1.1-billion the Liberal government spent to cancel gas plants in Oakville and Mississauga.

The Liberals killed the gas plants to hang on to power in the 2011 election, and should be defeated in a non-confidence motion as quickly as possible, said Opposition Leader Tim Hudak.

“They have no moral authority to govern this province when they’re willing to use whatever it takes, $1.1-billion, to save a handful of Liberal seats,” he said.
