The Doug Ford Tories wasted no time in mowing down the ousted Liberal government’s Green Ontario Fund.
The fund was paid for with cap-and-trade proceeds, and Ford has vowed to scrap the carbon pricing “slush fund” and fight any attempt by the Justin Trudeau government to replace it.
“We will use every single tool at our disposal to make sure that the federal government doesn’t put a burden of the carbon tax on the backs of families, the backs of businesses, backs of industries,” Ford said Tuesday to loud applause at the first official meeting of the new PC caucus. “It is absolutely the worst tax anyone could put on the workers and families of Ontario.”
