I just want to pick up on a question that was asked by my colleague from University–Rosedale.

First of all, not-for-profits in Toronto already don’t pay development charges, so we really wish that the government members would stop repeating that talking point over and over again, because it’s not true.

Secondly, aside from the argument about whether or not development charges should be charged—

Setting aside the question about whether or not development charges are charged, this government promised that they would make municipalities whole for that money, and they haven’t done that in this budget.

So why did the government break its promise to municipalities?
