Ontario Assembly

43rd Parl. 1st Sess.

It’s always a pleasure to rise. We heard today from my colleagues that spoke about Enbridge and the fact that they make billions and billions of dollars in profit. We heard that their CEO is making millions and millions of dollars in compensation. I listen to my colleagues on that side of the House talk about affordability. We know that living in this province, whether it’s rents, groceries, gas prices, food banks—I did a member’s statement this morning on food banks. It’s the highest level ever. There are encampments, even in Niagara, which my colleague across the road knows.

But the one thing that’s interesting here, when I listen to my Liberal friend, is they talk about affordability. So I’m going to ask you a question. On Bill 165, I think we’ve pretty well got our positions straight. So my question to the Liberals: Bill 165 I think is a mistake for the reasons I just said, but what about your party when you decided to privatize Hydro One at the expense of affordability in the province of Ontario?
