"Our Province needs decisive leadership, and we’re not getting
it from Dalton McGuinty and the Liberal Party," said Klees. "The
disastrous budget of the past week underscores the McGuinty
government’s completely inept stewardship of Ontario. He has no
plan, is out of touch with Ontarians, and will only drag us
deeper into debt, will further destabilize our economy, and
undermine the quality of life of every man, woman and child in
this province."
"With this lack of direction, we can expect more job losses and
drastic reductions in our social services such as health care
and services to seniors all over Ontario."
Klees is ready to be Premier and that is the prime objective. He
brings 25 years of business experience, 14 years as an MPP and
cabinet minister and 25 years as an active member of the PC
Party to this leadership race and that’s exactly what Ontario
needs right now during these economic times. Klees is known
throughout the Party as a consensus builder and advocate of
grassroots policy development and decision making. He has
served as Chair of the PC Caucus since the 2004 election and has
been the Official Opposition Critic for Education,
Transportation and Infrastructure.
"My many years in the real world of business, my cabinet level
government experience, and my many years as an active member of
our Party has prepared me well for the responsibilities of
leadership. I’m looking forward to serving our Party as
Leader, to unite and energize an expanded membership and
following the next election, to bring the renewal that Ontarians
expect to this Province as its next Premier."
