When I was growing up, my parents taught me lessons I hold dear today: the value of hard work, the importance of finding a good-paying job and looking out for the safety of myself and those around me. These are principles I share with many workers across Ontario.
As Minister of Labour, I will chart a fair and reasonable course. My goal is to preside over an era of peace and prosperity — for both labour and business. What I’ve heard across the board is that we must continue to prioritize health and safety. When I first became Minister of Labour, I was shocked to learn that between 2014 and 2018, 24 young workers in Ontario lost their lives on the job.
This is an issue that I’ve been passionate about since my days at Home Hardware. I was proud to take charge of setting up the first joint Health and Safety Committee for the 70 employees at our store. We’re going to need more carpenters, electricians, painters, boilermakers, plumbers and others to perform this work. These are well-paying, important jobs.
