I’m just about at my wits end with this Provincial government.   Everything that Dalton McGuinty is involved with makes me feel like I’m in less of a free country and more of a communist Province.

I want to remind everyone that in only a few months we’ll be paying 8% more on everything that we buy.   Get ready to have a little less, as that’s just what the Liberal Government of Ontario wants for all of us.   Just remember….we voted for him for 2 terms and with majority.   There has to be some stage of “whoops” in all of us when we look at all the amazing things this guy has done for our Province.

I also found out that our provincial government has decided to “encourage” us to not disobey the law.  I’m all over following the law, but things are getting a little nuts.  We have points that we lose when we disobey the law, followed by STUPID insurance rates that will go nuts for 7 years should you loose your valuable points.   A fine is going to stop us?   And the rates they are imposing?

An $85 seatbelt ticket now will cost $200 ($240 with costs) starting January 1, 2010.

Going through a red light will jump from $150 to $260 ( $325 with costs)

Failing to pull to the right for an emergency vehicle will cost $400 ($490 with costs) instead of $85.
In a continued effort to make Ontario’s roads the safest in North America these increases will hopefully act as a deterrence to drivers who fail to recognize the safety issues associated with responsible driving.

So…why don’t we just make each of these violations a fine of $1,000,000,000.  Let’s just call it straight, if you want to make an impact for these violations we should hammer us.   Just take it to the end.  1 Million dollar fine for breaking any of the Highway Traffic Act laws.   I’m not one for ever not putting my seatbelt on, and I try to make extra effort to follow all the laws.  However, this is getting a little nuts.

But then again…We all voted Liberal to run Ontario.  So, I blame anyone that voted Liberal.  I really hope we don’t make the same mistake again for a 3rd time.

I wanted to define that all work done for our clients are by the staff that work at FPM Marketing and FPM3.    I get about 3 phone calls and about 10 emails a day from companies in India offering their services to provide coding and website outsourcing.   I have to give them the bad news each time that we actually have the staff in house.

We have designers, layout artists, Flash coders, programming coders, HTML coders and mobile phone application designers in house.    I believe in making sure we can provide exceptional service for our clients in keeping the cost low and giving an amazing product.

This is one of the reasons that FPM Marketing is not just another Advertising and Marketing agency.  We offer unique solutions to enhancing your advertising strategies to not only captivate the customers but to also show you a return on investment.

Hence, why FPM Marketing (FPM3) is the right agency for you to use when looking for your next advertising campaign, a website with a new look, database coding for your current website, or adding social media to your website and keeping you connected to your clients.

Side note: FPM Marketing (Canada) is still looking for a coder, that understands web programming (PHP, Cocoa (an asset but not a necessary),MYSQL database)
