Ontario's provincial flag flies on a flag pole in Ottawa on June 30, 2020. Premier Doug Ford wants more federal funding set aside for Ontario.Ontario won’t settle for a “bad deal” when it comes to billions in required financial aid for municipalities, Premier Doug Ford said Wednesday, as the rift between the province and federal government over desperately needed civic funding appeared to widen.
The Premier said Ontario represents 38 per cent of Canada’s population, and he believes it should receive the equivalent to that in the federal deal.Some municipalities have expressed frustration in recent months that they are stuck in the middle of a lingering standoff between the federal and Ontario governments over the aid package.
The omnibus bill – dubbed the COVID-19 Recovery Act – proposes to change 20 pieces of current legislation that govern the province’s schools, municipalities, and justice system. The 188 page bill also includes measures announced by Education Minister Stephen Lecce this week to end school suspensions for students in junior kindergarten to Grade 3.
Green party Leader Mike Schreiner said changing environmental regulations is not necessary to get the economy moving.“Caring for nature, farmland and water is a vital part of the economic recovery, not something we sacrifice,” he said in a statement.

Tory disagrees with Ford government changes to eviction rulesToronto Mayor John Tory says he disagrees with the Ford government’s proposed changes to provincial residential tenancy law that in some cases would make it easier for landlords to evict tenants who fall behind in paying rent. People need to learn how to save money,It's only been 3 months and yall already broke and cant pay rent? Dont blame the Government because you cant manage your own life. Most landlords I know in my medium size town are using properties and rent for a retirement fund. They are not by any means rich. Pretty simple, pay your rent or GTFO! Landlords don't owe you charity... Deadbeat tenants are the worst. It can take over a year to get rid of them sometimes. Can you imagine your employer withholding your paycheque for months while you still have all your bills to pay?
