        I find this to be absolutely incredible. What a way for the ON Chamber of Commerce to raise the public's opinion of the business community. With friends like this...

        Well, I’ve seen an astonishing number of knitting and guillotine references in the last 24 hours. Rocco may have unwittingly created a rallying point #CDNpolj #ONpoli

        I'll never forget him complaining on the radio that if you hired someone near the end of the year the employee shouldn't be allowed sick days.

        When this is what becomes of formerly credible organizations like the Ontario Chamber of Commerce, something is seriously wrong. This can't possibly do anything but destroy the image of the business community.
