Provincial Liberal Candidate for Northumberland-Peterborough South “Beyond Disappointed” at Ford Election Budget

In Local

The Doug Ford Government has delivered a Provincial budget today with little to no vision for the future of Ontario, said Northumberland-Peterborough South Provincial candidate Jeff Kawzenuk.

“We have seen this government cut $1.3 billion to public education. They are refusing to break their for-profit partnerships with Long-Term Care Homes, continuing the warehousing of our parents and grandparents.

“We need a clear plan that puts public health care over private health care, where our children’s future in public education comes first. Where our seniors deserve the dignity, they have earned. This budget has literally done nothing to address these critical issues”, said Jeff Kawzenuk Liberal Candidate Northumberland-Peterborough South.

As Provincial Liberals we have made our priorities clear:
· Public Health Care
· Public Education
· Ending For-Profit Long-Term Care
· Economic Dignity

On Friday, April 29, 2022, Steven Del Duca will announce 4 new tax changes that are both smart and fair. Changes that will help struggling families and Ontario’s small businesses, while ensuring those who earned grotesque profits pay their fair share.

“We need to be doing better…we will do better. Our Province is not for sale”, stated Kawzenuk.
