TORONTO—Despite any rhetoric to the contrary, the current Ontario government plans to outspend its predecessor, finds a new study published today by the Fraser Institute, an independent, non-partisan Canadian public policy think-tank.
“When in opposition, the PCs frequently criticized the Liberal government’s spending, but now the Ford government plans to actually spend more than the Wynne government ever did,” said Ben Eisen, senior fellow at the Fraser Institute and co-author of Ford Government Plans to Outspend Wynne Government.
