Helping small businesses

From the office of MPP Toby Barrett

To The Haldimand Press

HALDIMAND—Ontario’s plan to create a business environment that attracts investment and creates high-paying, good quality jobs was outlined by Finance Minister Rod Phillips in the Fall Economic Statement.

Ontario is a province of tremendous opportunity and potential however, high taxes, excessive payroll costs, and burdensome red tape have been driving investment and jobs away from the province. That is why the government is creating the conditions for success by reducing taxes and eliminating outdated and duplicative regulations, while making sure important health, safety, and environmental protections are maintained or enhanced.
