ORDRE DU JOUR

Opposition Day

Jour de l'opposition

Mr. Fedeli moved,

M. Fedeli propose,

That the Legislative Assembly of Ontario recognizes that many Ontario families are struggling with the high cost of living, unaffordable hydro rates, and already pay enough taxes; and

That taxpayers should not be forced to dig into their pockets any further to pay for the Liberal government's waste and scandals;

Therefore, the Legislative Assembly of Ontario agrees that the Liberal government should not introduce or raise any taxes, including - but not limited to - the gas tax, payroll taxes and corporate tax rates.
