Standing in front of the Collingwood Hospital, PC Candidate Jim Wilson kicks off his campaign to get re-elected. On Monday morning, Jim Wilson says he would fight what he says is the government’s decision to deny the Collingwood General & Marine promised funding to make up an anticipated deficit.
Really Jim, you will fight to give the hospital money to help fight their deficit. I remember not too long ago
when you were the Minister of Health, and you not only would not help hospitals, you actually closed them down, fired nurses, and allowed doctors to move to the United States.
It seems that in every election, Jim Wilson tries to find a wedge issue, and run with it as part of his platform. I will give Wilson credit he knows that most of the population in both Alliston and Collingwood where the 2 hospitals in Simcoe-Grey are located, have an aging population who tend to vote Conservative.
It would be nice for once to have Wilson actually campaign on the issues set forth by his party, and not his own little agenda.
In 2007 it was the Highway 26 expansion, in 2011 I really can't remember, but I'm sure it was a wedge issue as well.
Bottom line, no matter what Wilson picks to campaign on, he will most likely win.
