In today's financially drought-stricken Ontario, the real rulers aren't the governing Liberals or the increasingly bold NDP. Ontario's left wing band of public dollar arsonists have long since auctioned themselves off to private interest groups, mostly to satiate their addiction to power and to grab votes.

The Elementary Teachers' Federation of Ontario, along with other unions like the OSSTF, OPSEU, and CUPE control Ontario's government. By reinforcing and supporting the rise of Dalton McGuinty in 2003 and Kathleen Wynne in 2013 these unions have helped to secure 300,000 new public sector jobs over the last decade.
