Queen's Park reports the Fifth Session of Ontario’s Parliament opened in Toronto. The throne speech details a housing program titled Home Ownership made Easy to increase land lots and lower prices. The plan includes outright sale and lease options with a down payment near $2,000 on a $15,000 dwelling, aiming to expand home ownership for lower and middle income families and ease the housing shortage in cities like Hamilton, Oakville, Milton, and Burlington. The speech also notes Ontario will assume control of air pollution regulation with a regionalized approach and mentions a public inquiry into divorce laws and compensation for those aiding police, plus Securities Act provisions to protect savers investing with finance and trust firms. The agriculture plan emphasizes farmer prosperity and affordable food, with expanded capital grants for wells, drainage, and farm buildings.
