Or, maybe not.

Over the weekend, Ontario Liberal Leader Kathleen Wynne pretty much threw in the towel, admitting she will not win the big chair on election day, but also begging Ontarians to vote for her party to stop the radical extremism of either the NDP or big, bad Doug Ford.

She is claiming that if you at least give her a little bit of power, as in a minority government, she will protect us from the rest.

And that is truly frightening.
