NDP unveils plan for free dental care for households earning less than $90,000; Doug Ford says sale of Highway 407 was a mistake

The plan would then be expanded within two years to partially cover uninsured families with annual household incomes between $90,000 and $200,000. Families in this range would have a portion of dental costs covered based on a sliding scale, for a minimum savings of 50 per cent of the bill.

Questioned by reporters, he would not firmly commit to eliminating tolls on the newer, publicly-owned eastern portion of the 407, but he said he did not believe in tolls and “gouging the people.” He also said the Harris government, for which Mr. Ford’s father served as an MPP, was wrong to sell off the now-privately owned 407 – comparing it to the Liberals’ decision to partially privatize Hydro One.

Few other issues in education get families and teachers as worked up as class sizes. But experts say the evidence on their effects is not conclusive. While smaller classes have an effect on achievement in elementary school, there is limited research on high schools.

Why do I think they wont...

YOU KNOW WHAT? I DON'T CARE WHAT THEY PROMISE .... unless when they make their promises they detail for us how they will roll out these promises & what it will cost us...otherwise all the promises leaders make are just pie in the sky wishful thinking

And another 10 billion to build classrooms?

Bhahaha with who money

Hmm. Quantity over quality?

How about reversing the Liberal decision to make Teachers College a 2 year program? 1 year worked for years.

How are you going to do that and reduce my tax bill?

More people on the Sunshine List. WTH?

Liberals always wooing teachers unions support = large voters and election volunteers

and the subsequent conservative government will be stuck cleaning up the mountain of debt left by the liberals

Is there 10k teachers to hire?

Lol good luck with that
