Thanks Bumbling John Baird

Ottawa taxpayers can thank local Republican Conservative MP John Baird for a surge in property taxes thanks to the failed Environment Minister's meddling in civic affairs.

Bumbling Baird, a snarling darling of President Harper, was in hiding today after yet another lawsuit was filed against the City of Ottawa for cancelling a much-need light-rail project after deals were signed

Baird, as the world knows, took it upon himself when he was Tresury Board Princess to scuttle the project to help Larry, Moe and Curly as in O'Brien become mayor of the once-proud city.

Reports today show lawsuits have grown to $279 million. The latest to sue the city is St. Lawrence Cement Inc. They want a mere $103 million.

So thanks a lot Baird.

The only good that could come out of your mega million dollar interference play is that once Ottawa property owners see next year's tax assessment they will kick your well used ass out of office.
