Kenora-Rainy River MPP Howard Hampton is doubting the sincerity of the McGuinty Government over its attempts to crack down on the use of public money for lobbyists.
Hampton says the most recent information his party has received shows that former lobbyists are now part of the Liberal government.
"I think people would be shocked to learn that some of the health care budget is actually being spent on insider lobbyists who worked inside the Premier's office," says Hampton. "That money should be going to health care."
Hampton believes the message government has been sending out is - to get access to cabinet ministers, you need to hire a lobbyist.
