I don’t understand what business it is of the provincial government’s to hand out money to private businesses. I follow a local MPP and he is constantly posting about the funding his government gives to various companies and municipalities. I understand the funding to municipalities and cities for community centres and what not. But giving money to private businesses to purchase equipment ? Wtf? They can finance their own equipment or fold the business?
