BURLINGTON, ON

It didn’t take the provincial government any time at all to take some decisive moves – tomorrow afternoon Steve Clark, Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing, will introduce legislation outlining the next phase of Ontario’s plan to build more homes faster.

Minister of Housing is going to tell the Legislature about his plans for building houses – a task that the municipalities have to make happen.

The Minister will hold a technical media briefing via teleconference at 1:45 p.m. What he says at that briefing will not be attributable – it will be given as background to the legislation he will be tabling in the Legislature at 3:00 pm

While voters across the province are scurrying about to decide who they want to elect as their city councillors the provincial government is getting ready to introduce a bill that isn’t expected to make the job these new city council will have to do in the next four years.

Get ready for a bumpy ride
