In closing, I again want to just highlight the four
pillars of economic development that our party is focusing on and that our leader, Patrick Brown, is focusing on.
He’s touring the province talking to chambers of commerce, BIAs and other business organizations, and really
focusing on four pillars.
(1) Red tape: I’ve already covered that—380,000
regulations costing the economy about $15 billion every
year.
(2) The highest energy costs in all of North America:
We need to stop the sell-off of Hydro One. We need to
stop signing contracts for energy that we don’t need.
(3) We need to build that infrastructure. The best
example of infrastructure not being built in the province
that would stimulate huge benefits for the people of the
province is the Ring of Fire. We’ve heard this government make three announcements about building infrastructure, building that road to the Ring of Fire, and it’s not happening. Three times—they love photo ops, but the
reality is that the Ring of Fire is not being developed as
we speak.
(4) Lastly—and I’m really happy our leader is focused
on this because it’s something that we all hear from the
private sector and from the business community in
Ontario—there is a skills mismatch in the province.
There are employers across Ontario today who can’t find
people to fill jobs. Our leader, Patrick Brown, has highlighted many times that in Ontario today we’re graduating kids and students for jobs that don’t exist today and
tomorrow.
We’re going to continue to advocate to create better
economic conditions in the province. This government
has to wake up to the fact that every single day we have
businesses calling us, telling us that they’re barely
hanging on. In fact, a lot of businesses can’t even hold on
until the next election—
I would urge the Premier to get out of the bubble and
get across the province. Things are serious in the
province. You’ve got to do more to create the winning
conditions in Ontario.
