Ford government extends subsidies for political parties, fueling early Ontario election speculation
November 6, 2024
Ontario has extended for another two years its practice of handing millions of dollars in subsidies to the province’s political parties, ahead of a possible early election in 2025.Premier Doug Ford’s Progressive Conservative government had passed changes three years ago that would have phased out at the end of this year the subsidy per vote received in the most election. He had previously railed against the handout in 2018 as “political welfare” but later extended it during the pandemic.

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says her government is making major changes to auto insurance, including allowing rate hikes and switching to a predominantly no-fault claims model.Under the new system, car accident victims in most cases won’t be able to sue the party responsible for their injury and, instead, insurers would pay compensation at rates set by the government.By cutting down litigation costs, the government estimates that when the new system is in place in 2027, it could lead to savings of up to $400 per year for the average insurance premium.
