Home My WebLink AboutHuron Expositor, 2016-03-09, Page 7Budget fails Huron -Bruce: Thompson MPP for Huron -Bruce, Lisa Thompson, said the 2016 Liberal budget is putting a new tax on gaso- line and home -heating. That would life more unaf- fordable for families and seniors across Ontario, according to Thompson. "All across my riding I've been hearing the same thing: the cost of living is too high. People are being forced to choose between heating and eat- ing, and with this Budget, unfortunately there is not a break in sight," Thomp- son said. Included in the Budget is the Liberals' proposed cap -and -trade scheme, which they say will only increase gasoline costs by 4.3 cents a litre and natu- ral gas costs by $60 a year. However, private -sector estimates show that the long-term cost impact on families will be much higher, increasing the cost of gasoline by $400 a year and home -heating by $475, according to a press release. "What the Liberals have failed to realize is the eco- nomic toll this will have on our smaller communi- ties. Here in Huron -Bruce, the Liberals' Cap -and - Trade tax will directly impact the ability of industries such as farm- ing, tourism and small business to remain competitive. "Another red flag for me is the reduction to the budget for the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs," Thompson said. "Ontario farmers deserve to have a govern- ment that supports them." "The only good that I can see coming from this Budget is the commitment to increased spending for special needs students, enhancing autism ser- vices, hospice and pallia- tive care. I've advocated for better support in these areas, and I'll be working to ensure that Huron - Bruce receives its fair share of these funds." Come drive bus, for us!
