Premier Dalton McGuinty is pouring cold water on a list of
demands made by Ontario's New Democrats in exchange for supporting the
Liberal government's budget.
McGuinty says he's pleased the NDP are
offering ideas to improve the budget instead of taking the same stand as the
Progressive Conservatives who vow to vote against it.
However, the
premier says he wishes the New Democrats had put forward some ideas that
actually helped the cash-strapped government save money.

Leader Andrea Horwath wants a new $250 million job creation tax credit and the HST removed from home heating bills.
