The Conservatives are smart about this - HST are the highest-profile taxes. Taxpayers see and feel an HST hike instantly, and the corresponding drop that the federal Cons made was a huge political success for them. Floating an HST hike to pay for Metrolinx after a decade of scandal is a sure way to kill The Big Move or the Wynne government itself.

The Provincial Liberals aren't this stupid. I'm hoping this is some kind of temporary poison-pill thing to say "see, you like plan Y because it's not an HST hike!" and we go ahead with an income-tax hike and a 10 cent gas tax.
