 Hi all,



Individuals can send an email to the Ontario Government through the Make
Poverty History website asking the Premier to move on three specific
anti-poverty areas in the upcoming provincial budget:



1. Invest in infrastructure development of new affordable housing units.

2. Invest in infrastructure through the expansion of early learning and
child care spaces.

3. Stimulate local economies by putting money into the pockets of low income
families by speeding up increases to the Ontario Child Benefit, and by
increasing incomes for those on Ontario Works and the Ontario Disability
Support Programme.



To send your message, just fill in the online form:

Please forward widely.



And Happy New Year!
