The government of Ontario Premier Doug Ford tabled “Ontario’s Plan to Build” on Thursday, a 241-page, $198 billion document that serves both as a provincial budget and an election platform for the Conservative party.

The Ford government has committed to billions of dollars in infrastructure spending, relying on continued deficits to fund promises made in his election campaign.

Two new affordability measures are a proposed Ontario Seniors Care at Home Tax Credit, which will give recipients up to 25 per cent of eligible medical expenses back up to a maximum of $1,500 and an enhancement of Ontario’s low-income Individuals and Families Tax Credit.

Proposed highway projects announced in the budget include a new twin bridge over the Welland Canal on the Queen Elizabeth Way, widening Highway 401 in eastern Ontario, widening Highway 17 from Arnprior, Ont. to Renfrew, Ont., and reconstructing a stretch of Highway 101 in northern Ontario.
