Standing in front of a brown provincial government building on ‎Jarvis St., Tory Leader Tim Hudak alleged that it is a symbol of Liberal waste and bureaucracy. According to Hudak, “what you see behind me, that nine-storey building? All that is is a nine-storey factory that produces two products: paper work and red tape.” Addressing reporters in Toronto on Monday, Hudak said “it is a Taj Mahal of L‎iberal bureaucracy. We can’t afford that.”

Standing on the top floor of a nearby condominium building under construction, Hudak complained that it is estimated to cost at least $100 million to retrofit the building at 222 Jarvis St. to introduce more environmental measures such as daylight sensors, rainwater harvesters and emission reducing carpets. Hudak alleged that “they spent $100 million to make a luxury palace for bureaucrats who don’t deliver front line services. What an incredible waste.” He elucidated that added with the at least $317 milli‎on MaRS building bail out “they could have built four subway stops in Toronto, they could have built a new major hospital.”

Highlighting the difference between his vision and that of Liberal Leader ‎Kathleen Wynne, Hudak alleged that “I have been very direct that we need to reduce the size and cost of government.” He vowed to go after the middle managers who are “sucking more money out of the system.” Hudak reiterated his controversial “Million Job‎s Plan,” which he says is “a statement of faith in the people of Ontario that we can actually live with less waste.”
