Mr. Garfield Dunlop (Simcoe North): I understand that the Premier is embarking on his "Thank you for putting up with my broken promises" tour. Yes, this is the man who will say and do anything to get elected. As you are well aware, the Green Lane landfill is about to receive the garbage of the city of Toronto with the blessing of Minister Peters, Minister Bentley, MPPs Ramal, Matthews and Van Bommel, and of course the Premier, who is prepared to sacrifice the London-area ridings.

What is truly interesting is the manner in which the Green Lane landfill received approval to expand. Immediately after the House adjourned for summer recess last June, Green Lane received approval for a huge expansion. A few days later, the site 41 proposed landfill in the township of Tiny also received draft design approval. Wouldn't you think that a Premier who talks about transparency would have had the courage not to hide behind the summer recess? In a sneaky, secretive manner both site 41 and Green Lane received approval, obviously with the intention that any negative publicity would be covered up by many summer activities.

At a time when Ontarians expect their Premier to protect their valuable water sources, Dalton McGuinty and former St. Thomas Mayor Steve Peters are finding sneaky ways to approve landfills set upon some of the most pristine water on our planet, like the water below site 41. To make matters even worse, the Liberals held committee hearings on the Ontario Clear Water Act, thinking they could actually fool other Ontarians. Dalton McGuinty will say anything and do anything to get elected. I wonder if he will take his "Thank you for putting up with my broken promises" tour to site 41 and Green Lane.
