This month the Ontario’s Liberal government released its budget for 2015-2016. The budget’s implementation legislation is Bill 91, Building Ontario Up Act (Budget Measures), 2015, is a “Harper-style” omnibus bill that contains many measures, including provisions to create the new administrative and investment body for the ORPP, and to privatize Hydro One (Read the OFL budget response, “OFL Says Ontario Budget Sells False Choices” at http://beta.floating-point.com/ofl/index.php/ontariobudget2015).
With Bill 91 making its way through the Legislature, the OFL made a submission to the government’s Standing Committee on Finance to call for a dramatic reorientation, away from the sale of public assets and toward alternative revenue streams that require corporations to contribute their fair share.
