(QUEEN’S PARK) - MPP Randy Hillier, Ontario PC Critic for Labour, tabled The Trust in Arbitration Act yesterday. The legislation is the Ontario PC’s strong response to the McGuinty Government’s ongoing shell game with public sector union negotiations.

“For several years now we Conservatives, along with countless others, have told this Liberal government that Ontario’s arbitration system needs to be fixed for the broader public service,” said Hillier yesterday in the Legislature, “or, in light of our recent and poor economic performance, Ontario’s broader public hindrance.”

TORONTO - Two bills proposed by an Ontario Tory MPP would make it tougher to skirt a taxpayer protection law or vote on legislation without knowing the full cost to the provincial treasury.

Tory MPP Randy Hillier introduced two private member’s bills Wednesday that would reinforce the Taxpayer Protection Act, which he says has been rendered toothless by exemptions sought by the Dalton McGuinty government to increase taxes.
