| I live in Ontario as well. This is why we need more PPP (private-public-partnerships) here. Just look at the MTO. It use to be an absolute cesspool or inefficiency which would make the old USSR envious. Drivers license expired? Time to go stand in line where there are two tellers and 6 people "on break" in the back. The lineup is out the door, but who cares? Certainly not the union slugs who work there. They finally introduced kiosks, which charged a "convenience fee" (probably at the request of the unions). Fast forward, there is now a PPP in place for the MTO. Automation all over the place, you can renew your license online (FINALLY). if not for the ability to step away from their union staff, none of this would have taken place. The union fights changes which leads to efficiency as this often means job losses. Any "tech" the government builds looks like it was done by high school students and it is a shame they pay for this garbage. Again, imagine you went to your bank site, and it looked like it was built 10 years ago and never been updated? |
