re: Ontario has it's first female and openly gay Premier....

I'll be thrilled if they leave over this. Less dead weight for us to carry.

Ontario thrives as a diverse, accepting and multicultural melting pot. If they want to live somewhere where that is not valued, they're welcome to leave and head to the plains, where they can languish economically and culturally with the rest of the people who think like they do and under provincial governments which cater to that kind of thought.

We'll keep progressing, in the mean time.

Well said!
Fingers crossed, I'll be moving to ON later this year, and it'd be nice if the bigots freed up some space for me

Very well said!!! I live in Alberta, and I look at our provincial politcal parties and it makes me want to move back home (ontario) so bad.

We just moved back after 3 years in Quebec. Not that Quebec is that bad, we just really missed ON. It's so good to be back, even if our time here is short this time, it'll always be home.

Hope you find a way back some day! I love visiting Alberta (we took the train in Jasper and Banff last year, amazing!) but would never want to live there for the very reason of the culture and politics.
