…  Richer Than Ever, [is] a five-minute video designed to kickstart a province-wide conversation about Ontario’s next budget. Ontario spends $2,000 per person per year less on public programs than the average of all other provinces, yet few people seem to know that our economy is, overall, more prosperous than ever. Our video and its companion blog post, “Five Things to Know About the Next Ontario Budget,” makes a strong case for more progressive taxation and more public spending on the things that Ontarians need.
