Tory confident he can salvage campaign over long weekend

BRAMPTON — Progressive Conservative Leader John Tory says he is confident he can salvage
his campaign over the next five days as voters begin focusing on the election
over the Thanksgiving weekend.

“People are never really preoccupied with politics,” he told reporters at a campaign event in Brampton, west of Toronto, the old
stomping grounds of his mentor, former premier Bill Davis.

“I think if they spend time with their families this weekend they will be thinking about the future.

Mr. Tory said that as families gather around the table for turkey dinner with their children and grandchildren, they will take the
time to reflect upon why children with autism in the province are not getting
treatment, why so many Ontarians can’t find a family doctor and why farmers
are struggling to make ends meet.

“I believe that augers well for me and for us,” he said.

But he said he regrets that many of the issues he has tried to focus on have been drowned out by his contentious plan to extend
public funding to all religious schools. In an effort to diffuse the
controversy, he announced this week that he will put the policy to a free vote
in the provincial legislature.

He is now making a concerted effort to change the channel. In Brampton Friday, he returned to the topic of families struggling
with autistic children. Last week in London, he hosted a roundtable discussion
with several parents of autistic children.

“We haven’t had an opportunity until recently to discuss these very real concerns,” said Mr. Tory, who was wearing a ceramic
autism pin on the lapel of his jacket.

Liberal Leader Dalton McGuinty’s broken promises have been a key theme throughout Mr. Tory’s campaign. He said today that Mr.
McGuinty’s treatment of parents of autistic children was not only
“irresponsible” but “cruel.”

Mr. McGuinty wrote a letter during the 2003 campaign to Nancy Morrison, the mother of an autistic son, promising to end the
previous Progressive Conservative government’s “unfair and discrimatory”
practice of cutting off funding for treatment when children turned 6.

But it was not until two years after he was in office – when the courts ruled in July of 2005 that the province was violating the
children’s constitutional rights by denying them treatment – that Mr. McGuinty
lived up to his promise.

“When I meet these parents and see what they’re having to go through, and I see that Mr. McGuinty chose to fight them in court, I
think it is inexcusable behaviour,” Mr. Tory said. “It’s cruel.”

Mr. Tory has invited ordinary Ontarians to participate in his media events to help drive home his points about the Liberals’ four
years in office. Today was no different. Neil Meirovich, whose son Jerry was
diagnosed with autism at the age of 2.5, was at his side.

Mr. Tory said Jerry languished for more than two years on a waiting list for treatment. He said Mr. Meirovich and his wife were
forced to borrow from family and friends to raise the $150,000 for their son’s
treatment.

There are 900 children in Ontario on a waiting list for intensive behavioural intervention (IBI) therapy, a system of behaviour
modification to teach autistic children language skills and how to play
appropriately. The treatment costs an average of $70,000 a year for each
child.

Mr. Tory has pledged to spend another $75-million a year on autism services to help unclog the waiting list if he becomes
premier.

Autism coalition puts parties to the test

Regional News

Oct 04, 2007 07:44 PM

By: Michael Power

An e-mail message to the four main political parties asking for each candidate’s
stance on autism issues resulted in good reviews of two parties, a
less-than-stellar grade for a third and no verdict on the fourth, said the
co-founder of the Ontario Autism Coalition.

The coalition sent the
e-mail Sept. 4 to the Progressive Conservatives, Liberals, the NDP and the
Green Party, asking about their stances on three issues surrounding autism
treatment, said Laura Kirby-McIntosh, a Concord resident who also attended a
press conference in Toronto on the subject this week.

The coalition
was joined at the conference by the Ontario Association for Behaviour Analysis
and the Campaign for Public Education.

Specifically, the groups asked
about:

• a list of children waiting for specialized autism treatment,
which currently stands at about 1,000;

• funding for that specialized
treatment, known as Intensive Behavioural Intervention, (IBI);

•
putting in place a system to accredit people to administer IBI.

The
coalition then analyzed the parties’ responses to see whether they lived up to
— or even exceeded — expectations.

“This was a way to elicit that kind
of response from them in writing,” said Ms Kirby-McIntosh, whose
seven-year-old son, Clifford, is autistic.

The NDP and the Progressive
Conservatives exceeded the coalition’s expectations, she said. The parties
gave detailed responses to the questions and have made official announcements
on how they would deal with autism issues.

The NDP states it will fund
IBI services in classrooms and clear the waiting list for autism
services.

John Tory has also vowed to clear the wait list, ensuring
children have the support they need when they start attending school and
expanding respite programs for parents and autistic children.

The NDP,
under leader Howard Hampton, didn’t specify if the party would give IBI funds
directly to parents or to agencies, while John Tory’s Conservatives have
stated they will offer to provide funding directly to the families of autistic
children.

“We’re pleased to see both those leaders taking the issue
seriously,” Ms Kirby-McIntosh said. “We’re pleased to see there’s an extensive
dialogue on the issue.

The Liberals’ response to the e-mail mainly
highlighted improvements to services the government had made in the last four
years, without touching on new commitments, Ms Kirby-McIntosh said. The three
issues the coalition asked about were not addressed in the party’s response,
she added.

“That one really is below our expectations,” she said. “We
asked for A, B and C and they gave us R. So it’s really difficult for us to
assess that.”

The Liberal platform says the party plans to give schools
“$10 million to prepare schools to deliver IBI therapy on-site for the first
time.”

The Green Party, meanwhile, has yet to respond to the
coalition’s request for information.

Autism group rips Grits over lack of policy

 

Antonella Artuso

Oct. 5, 2007

 

The Ontario Autism Coalition has rated the election platforms of the provincial parties and given the Liberal plan a poor
grade.

Laura Kirby-McIntosh, the mother of an autistic son and an advocate with the coalition, said both the NDP and Conservative commitments “exceeded
expectations,” while the Green party did not respond to their questions.

The coalition is seeking to have Intensive Behavioural Intervention, a specialized therapy for autistic children, provided to children in the public
school system.

All provincial parties were asked if they would allow IBI therapists into schools and if they had a plan to eliminate wait lists for the service.

The Liberal response was rated “below expectations” because their answers were incomplete or they failed to answer, Kirby-McIntosh said.

Union boss Hargrove throws support to Liberals, says NDP is out of touch

By THE CANADIAN PRESS

TORONTO - Prominent union boss Buzz Hargrove, once a staunch supporter of the New Democrats, has once again delivered a stinging rebuke to Ontario’s NDP
and leader Howard Hampton while throwing his support behind the province’s
incumbent Liberals.

Hargrove, the outspoken president of the Canadian Auto Workers, has made a tradition in recent provincial and federal campaigns of slamming the NDP and
its leadership, dismissing the party as out of touch and actively supporting
the Liberal alternative.

“I’m personally supporting the Liberals because I don’t think the NDP is true to its roots,” Hargrove said in an interview Friday.

“It’s not a left party. It’s a centrist party that’s trying to compete for votes in the centre of the spectrum, which I think is a mistake.”

McGuinty and Progressive Conservative Leader John Tory spent the day trading blows over just how the Liberal government has treated
families struggling with the challenges of autistic children.

Tory accused McGuinty of being “cruel” for promising to help familes with autistic kids, only to turn around and fight those same
families in a court battle over funding for a costly but effective treatment
known as Intensive Behavioural Intervention, or IBI.

“They thought they had a champion; what they received was a champion promise-breaker,” Tory said.

The Liberals insist they’ve nearly tripled spending on autism since they were elected in 2003 and more than doubled the number of
children getting access to the therapy.

McGuinty also pledged Friday to spend up to $150 million a year to reduce class sizes in grades 4 to 8, provide more individual attention in areas like
the arts and to better help students make the transition to high school.

Hampton, no stranger to Hargrove’s campaign barbs, wasn’t willing Friday to even dignify Hargrove’s comments with a reply, opting instead to accuse
Liberal Premier Dalton McGuinty of providing little more than excuses for the
difficulties confronting the province’s manufacturing sector.

The province’s economy added about 30,000 jobs last month, but about 11,000 manufacturing jobs were lost, for a total of 44,000 manufacturing jobs that
have disappeared this year, Hampton said during a campaign event in Sarnia,
Ont.

“Dalton McGuinty simply goes around the province saying, ‘I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I feel your pain, but there’s nothing I can do,”’ Hampton said.

“If our plan had been put in place three years ago I think a number of the manufacturing jobs that have been lost could have been avoided.”

Hargrove defended his pro-Liberal position by citing a number of high-profile Liberal investments in the auto industry, including $235 million
for Ford and General Motors.

“By taking the lead he’s leveraged over $7 billion in investment in the auto industry in the last three years,” Hargrove said of McGuinty.

“Howard (Hampton), one of the problems is he doesn’t understand what’s happening in the manufacturing industry or the auto industry.”

Hargrove acknowledged there are still a lot of people facing job losses in Ontario, but said a McGuinty-led Liberal government would be in a much better
position to turn the tide than any government led by Hampton.

Hargrove has long directed union members to practice strategic voting - casting a ballot for whichever Liberal or NDP candidate is in a better
position to win - in order to avoid a Conservative
government.

Tory calls McGuinty ‘cruel’

 

Oct 05, 2007 01:26 PM

Robert Benzie
Queen’s Park Bureau Chief

It was “cruel” of Liberal Premier Dalton McGuinty to drag parents of autistic children through the wringer over the past four years, charges
Progressive Conservative Leader John Tory.

Tory, who today repeated his pledge of $75 million in new funding for autism services, reminded voters of McGuinty’s “broken promise” from the 2003
election.

“Right now, the parents of more than 1,000 children under the age of six with autism are feeling like they’ve been abandoned on an island as their kids
sit on these growing waiting lists,” he said in Bramalea.

“The waiting list consisted of 89 kids when Dalton McGuinty came to office in 2003. Today it is 1,000, so that’s what’s happened on his watch.”

McGuinty countered that his government has tripled the funding for autism services from $42 million to $140 million, expanded training spaces for
therapists and paid for summer camps.

“Let’s talk about how far we’ve come. You’ll remember under the NDP there was zero funding for autistic kids, zero. You’ll remember that we’ve tripled
the funding that was there under the Conservatives,” the Liberal leader told
reporters during a campaign stop at Lincoln Alexander Public School in
Markham.

While there are about 1,000 children on the waiting list for intensive behaviour intervention (IBI) therapy that can cost $50,000 a year per child,
there are 1,200 kids currently receiving the intensive therapy, up from 550
when the Conservatives were in power.

The Liberals also note the waiting list is longer because children are being assessed for treatment whereas they were kept on waiting lists for
assessment in the previous Tory government.

Still, Tory insisted that’s not good enough.

“I don’t know how Mr. McGuinty lives with himself in trying to describe that as progress because we all know that’s it not,” he said, adding the
Liberals’ decision to continue legal actions started by the previous PC
government against parents seeking autism services was wrong.

“They thought they had a champion (in McGuinty). What they received instead was a champion promise breaker,” said Tory, noting the Liberal leader had
pledged in writing to give parents “the support and treatment they need.”

“I consider this kind of behaviour not just unaccountable, not just irresponsible, but quite frankly it’s cruel. It’s cruel behaviour to go back
on your word.”

Tory calls McGuinty ‘cruel’ to autistic kids

Fri, October 5, 2007

 

Chip Martin, Sun Media

 

BRAMALEA — Premier Dalton McGuinty demonstrated “cruel behaviour” when he broke his promise to help Ontario’s autistic
children and their families, Conservative leader John Tory charged here today.

“They thought they had a champion, what they got was a champion promise-breaker,” said Tory, adding he would commit $75 million to clear the
backlog of autistic children waiting for treatment and another $5 million to
provide respite for their parents.

Tory said McGuinty explicity promised to help autistic children in his 2003 election campaign when the waiting list for treatment numbered 89 — now it is
1,000.

“I don’t know how Mr. McGuinty lives with himself when he calls that progress,” the Conservative leader told supporters after meeting with parents
of autistic children this morning.

Among them were Neil and Elana Meirovich, a Richmond Hill couple whose son, Jerry, 7, has autism.

While he now receives behavioural treatment for 20 hours a week that is fully covered, the family went into debt of more than $150,000, Neil Meirovich
said. That was to cover the cost of treatment that McGuinty promised would be
covered.

Neil said based on McGuinty’s promise he voted Liberal, but not this time.

“I’ll be voting Conservative,” he told reporters, noting he wants to continue the fight on behalf of other parents whose struggle continues.

He and Tory noted McGuinty not only failed to live up to his promise but spent millions in court to fight parents who tried to make him deliver on that
promise.

Tory said McGuinty should be embarrassed.

“It’s cruel behaviour to go back on your word … then go and fight these people in court. He created needless suffering for these most valuable kids
and their families.”

The Conservative leader will be in Guelph to talk about the Liberal government’s poor record in dealing with seniors, people with disabilities,
people without doctors and low-income families.

In the evening he will attend a rally in London before heading off to Sarnia on what Tory’s handlers are calling “the real-people tour.”

Tory hinges northern hopes on economic promises

By THE CANADIAN PRESS

2007-10-05

BRAMALEA, Ont. - Progressive Conservative Leader John Tory is accusing Premier Dalton McGuinty of cruelty for breaking a promise to help children
with autism.

Tory says McGuinty promised in writing during the last election to help autistic children. Tory says that promise has gone by the wayside. In fact, he
says, the government has spent the last several years fighting in court to
restrict funding for these children.

Tory is promising that if he’s elected, he would spend $75 million to get the kids the help they need.

Tory is also promising another $5 million so parents can get some relief from caring for their autistic children.

PC Party media release

Oct-5-07  JOHN TORY WILL PROVIDE NEW LEADERSHIP TO HELP OUR MOST VULNERABLE CITIZENS

(Bramalea, ON) Ontario Progressive Conservative Leader John Tory today outlined that new leadership
is needed in order to help those families who have been left behind over the
past four years of McGuinty rule.

“The real test of leadership comes
not only from creating new opportunities and new prosperity, but also in
making sure this opportunity and prosperity is equitably shared,” Tory said,
“Too many vulnerable Ontario families are left feeling invisible, betrayed and
abandoned by the McGuinty government. A real leader would listen to these
people, learn from these people and deliver real results.”

Tory
started his day in Bramalea, where he met with parents of children with autism
who have been left languishing for years on waiting lists for autism
treatments after Dalton McGuinty broke his 2003 election promise to provide
them with support. Tory reiterated his commitment to invest $75 million to
clear the current waiting lists, provide more flexible treatment options for
families, and provide more supports to educators and child support workers in
order to give children with autism the supports they need.

“These
families of children with autism are feeling helpless and forgotten,” Tory
said, “But they will not be invisible and they will not be silent. I am here
to say I will listen, and I will also act to give these families the
meaningful supports they deserve.”

Tory will visit Guelph later this
afternoon where he will further address solutions for the plight of vulnerable
seniors, people without doctors and low-income families.

“In the last
four years, many of these people have been forgotten by the McGuinty
government,” Tory said. “Mr. McGuinty has also forgotten our seniors in
long-term care or without a doctor who are left to fend for themselves at the
very moment in their life when they need this peace of mind the most.”


“Do we really want four more years of this kind of neglect and denial?
Do we really want four more years of Dalton McGuinty?”

Tory pledged to
stand up for those less fortunate.

“Too many Ontario families are
living in poverty, and too many are living in housing conditions that are
unacceptable,” Tory concluded. “Our plan will unlock one billion dollars to
repair, renovate and rebuild homes for our most vulnerable neighbours. We will
also immediately eliminate Mr. McGuinty’s health tax for individuals making
less than $30,000 per year. Unlike Mr. McGuinty, I am prepared to be held
accountable for my promises I make, and for delivering real results.”

‘More should be done’ for autistic kids: McGuinty

October 5, 2007

The Canadian Press

MARKHAM, Ont. — Liberal Leader Dalton McGuinty says more should be done to help autistic children, but won’t commit
to clearing a waiting list for treatment.

Speaking at an elementary school north of Toronto, McGuinty acknowledged “more work needs to be done,” but wouldn’t expand on his comments.

Opposition parties say the backlog of children waiting for the one-on-one treatment —  known as intensive behavioural intervention, or IBI —
 has grown significantly under the Liberal government.

They say the backlog is now at about 900 children, and accuse the party of breaking a promise to the families of autistic kids.

The Liberals say they’ve nearly tripled spending on autism and more than doubled the number of children getting access to the treatment.

McGuinty was at a school in Markham, where he talked to Grade 4 students and later touted new statistics that say Ontario’s unemployment shrank last
month.

He says the province’s manufacturing sector continues to “be challenged,” but says his party is the only one that can bring labour and business to the
table.

The Liberal leader also unveiled a new plank in his education platform, saying a Liberal government would spend up to $150 million a year to reduce
class sizes in grades 4 to 8, provide more individual attention in areas like
the arts and help students make the transition to high school.

‘More work to be done’ for autistic kids: McGuinty

CTV.ca News Staff

Though Liberal Leader Dalton McGuinty won’t commit to clearing a queue for autistic children awaiting treatment, he admits more should be done for
them.

McGuinty was speaking at an elementary school in Brampton north of Toronto on Friday when he made the remarks, saying “more work needs to be done.”

However, he wouldn’t provide details on what that work might include or what immediate steps the government could take.

The opposition parties have slammed the Liberal Party’s handling of the autism issue, saying the number of children waiting for the treatment method
known as IBI (intense behavioural intervention) has increased dramatically
under McGuinty’s government.

Conservative Leader John Tory is among those criticizing McGuinty on the issue. On Friday, Tory accused McGuinty of outright cruelty, saying he
promised in writing during the last election to help autistic children, but
has broken his word.

“They thought they had a champion; what they received was a champion promise-breaker,” Tory said.

“I consider this kind of behaviour not just unaccountable, not just irresponsible, but quite frankly, it’s cruel.”

The Liberals maintain that spending on autism has almost tripled under their watch, and the number of children accessing IBI programs has more than
doubled.

Tory contradicted that position, saying the government has actually been fighting in court for the past several years to limit funding to children with
autism.

Tory says he would spend $75 million to provide the necessary resources to the children, and another $5 million to allow parents some relief from caring
for their autistic kids.

During McGuinty’s Friday visit to the school in Markham north of Toronto he unveiled a new plank in the party’s education plan. If re-elected, McGuinty
said, he would spend up to $150 million annually to reduce class sizes in
grades 4 to 8, boost arts programs and help students get ready for high
school.

Environment, autism top issues for NDP candidate

News

October 4, 2007 

By: John
Slykhuis

York North MPP Julia Munro “has done nothing” to deal with the pollution stemming from the abandoned aluminum smelter on Warden Avenue, the newly
chosen provincial New Democratic Party candidate for York-Simcoe charged last
week.

“The Georgina smelter is unfortunately another broken Liberal promise that so desperately needs attention. My shock was to learn that our incumbent MPP
lives within a few kilometres of that site, yet she has done little to hold
the Liberals accountable for their promise to clean it up,” Nancy Morrison
told about 60 of the party faithful, including leader Howard Hampton, at the
Bradford Community Centre last Thursday night.

Ms Morrison is a Bradford resident and a civilian employee of the South Simcoe Police.

The meeting was chaired by Georgina Coun. Dave Szollosy, a long-time NDP supporter.

Shelley Martel, who is Mr. Hampton’s wife, is MPP for the Sudbury riding of Nickel Belt and the NDP’s health critic. She also gave a ringing endorsement
for Ms Morrison, describing her as, “a good friend of mine,” who has been a
champion for autistic children in the province.

Ms Morrison and her husband Phil have twins, a boy, Sean, and a girl, Meredith.
Her son is autistic and required intensive behavioural
intervention.

Mr. McGuinty broke his promise when he said, prior to the last election, that funding for the therapy would continue after an autistic child reached
the age of six, Ms Morrison said.

In a letter to Ms Morrison before the last election, Mr. McGuinty said, if elected, his government would support intensive autism treatment beyond the
age of six, calling the  policy of the Progressive Conservative
government of the day “discriminatory.”

That broken promise, Ms Martel said, “speaks volumes about Dalton McGuinty…This letter shows (Mr.) McGuinty would have said anything to get
elected and he did.”

The result was an anti-discrimination lawsuit by parents of autistic children that the McGuinty government fought, Ms Martel said.

“Despite everything else she has to do, Nancy was often in court in solidarity and support of those families.”

The lawsuit was defeated when an earlier decision was overturned by the Ontario Court of Appeal last year.

“Autism isn’t the only issue that is important to me,” she said, noting the increase in MPP salaries.

“The Liberal government held a special extension just before Christmas to ram through a raise to give MPPs a minimum of $110,000 a year and Premier
McGuinty has gone to (more than) $196,000 a year, which the Conservatives
fully supported. The NDP voted against this. Meanwhile, the government doesn’t
think the lowest income earners in this province are worth $10 an hour. Shame
on them.”

Mr. Hampton, who is the Rainy River MPP and has been party leader since succeeding Bob Rae in 1996, was quick to compliment Ms Morrison’s track record
in the community.

“I’ve had the opportunity to work with Nancy so this is a personal commitment because I’ve seen how committed she is to work on behalf of
community, to work on behalf of others in a very unselfish way,” he said.

Mr. Hampton said he’s also happy she came forward as the candidate because she embodies NDP principles.

“I don’t claim that we will necessarily win the next election. I just want to have enough new members like Nancy Morrison that we can have a substantial
say in what the agenda is going to be after the next election.”

Mr. Hampton reiterated the NDP commitment to the working and middle class and a “share the wealth” philosophy.

“Every day when I turn to the business pages of the newspaper I see, in big broad print, that the economy is doing better than ever; that billions are
being made on the stock market; that corporation executives’ pay and bonuses
have skyrocketed like never before; that we are much wealthier today than
we’ve every been — and yet as I make my way across Ontario from community to
community, what I often see is ordinary families having to work longer and
harder than ever to try to make ends meet and to try to provide for their
children.”

The NDP is also providing leadership in environmental areas such as global warming and if elected, would provide low-interest loans for people to buy
energy-efficient appliances and things such as solar panels, Mr. Hampton said.

In addition to Mrs. Munro, Ms Morrison will also square off against Liberal candidate John Gilbank, a Jackson’s Point businessman, in the Oct. 10
election.

The new riding includes Georgina, the Georgina Island Chippewas First Nation, East Gwillimbury, a northern slice of King Township, Bradford-West
Gwillimbury and Innisfil.
