Ontario budget: Free drug plan for people under 25, more child care spaces

http://barrie.ctvnews.ca/ontario-budget-free-drug-plan-for-people-under-25-more-child-care-spaces-1.3388170

Progressive Conservative Leader Patrick Brown said the budget is not, in fact, structurally balanced, because of one-time asset sale money -- such as the sale of shares of Hydro One -- and accounting "tricks," such as counting public pension surpluses as assets, against the advice of the province's Auditor general.

 

The Liberals had promised no new taxes on families, though they are increasing tobacco taxes by $10 per carton over the next three years and giving municipalities the power to introduce a hotel tax.
