Service Ontario was already largely privatized, that’s the entire reason it started. The already private drivers license offices were pulled into it and paid a commission too low to even cover their near minimum wage pay. Not disagreeing that it’s a bad move, just adding in because most people don’t realize most service Ontario workers are paid absolute garbage and treated like it by their employer.
I’m not entirely sure how you read that as if I was saying it was a good move. Maybe I phrased it poorly. I was trying to say privatization in the first place is why it’s in such a terrible spot by adding details people seem to be surprised by when I mention it. The entire existence of service Ontario was a shady government deal to make it look like they were adding public service while actually privatizing the majority of it.
Edit: I think it was my first sentence that was phrased poorly, I didn’t mean service Ontario already being private was the reason for the staples deal.
