TORONTO – Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne is calling for vicious, partisan politics at Queen’s Park to become a thing of the past, warning that the public will tune out otherwise.
At a Liberal fundraising heritage dinner, the Premier told the crowd that the party can handle winning elections and that politicians do not have to be vicious or mean or willfully partisan.
Around 2,000 people were at the dinner event.
Wynne also said she’ll be listening to opposition leaders even though her assessment of certain political situations may differ.

Meanwhile, a Forum Research poll published by the Toronto Star Thursday, reveals the Liberal Party is still in control of Toronto with 42 per cent support, followed by the NDP at 30 per cent, leaving the Tories five points back in third place.
The Premier’s first minority budget is expected to be unveiled sometime this spring, which could trigger an election if it’s rejected by the two opposition parties.

Aw ,come on.When has anyone agreed completely with any politician.It will never happen Joe.Or should that be Josephine?
He or she is an unelected Premier who will lose badly in his or hers first election.
You know it, I know it and everybody else knows it.
He or she is unelected, BG.
I know that’s the only way he or she could possible become Premier, but that’s too bad.
Bring on an election and oust he or she.
liberals suck plain and simple, nothing new here just a different liar at the helm and all the liberal supporters drink it up like koolaid.
Another lame tactic to try and make the Liberal party more appealing. I hear the sound of people gagging all over Ontario.
Let’s hope the opposition parties have the backbone to do the right thing and force an election.
I don’t want an election and I will vote against anyone who forces it. That means you, Timmy!
Where was Ms. Wynne when Dalton engaged in divisive politics? Just a silent member of the club. Actions speak louder than words.
