Randy Hillier, MPP for Lanark-Frontenac-Lennox and Addington, introduced a Bill that would expand jury trials to apply to provincial offences with penalties over $25,000 or offences that could end someone's livelihood.

After the Gas Plant, Ornge and Pan-Am Games scandals, it's clear the people of this province need oversight of our public institutions. That's why Randy Hillier, MPP for Lanark-Frontenac-Lennox and Addington, introduced a Bill to do just that. Grand juries are a time tested method for the public to have oversight over our public institutions.

One year after Premier Dalton McGuinty prorogued the Legislature, Randy Hillier, MPP for Lanark-Frontenac-Lennox and Addington, has introduced a Bill to limit the length of time a government can prorogue by cutting off the taps. Right now, a government can have a prorogation lasting up to a year in length. This Bill, if passed, would limit the length of time that the Lieutenant Governor in Council could continue to pay for the government to 60 days since the last time it sat.
