Building a Stronger Ontario by Helping People Get Ahead
The 2026 Ontario Budget is an important opportunity to drive inclusive economic growth and address the conditions that prevent people from fully participating in Ontario’s economy. Strategic investments in income security, employment stability, affordable housing and community services help people enter and stay in the workforce, support employers, and reduce future public costs while strengthening Ontario’s social and economic foundation.
Ontario can support community prosperity and long-term growth by:
- Laying the groundwork for financial security, good jobs and strong local economies.
- Getting people housed and keeping them housed by expanding non-market affordable housing, investing in supportive housing, and strengthening renter and tenant protections.
- Ensuring the sustainability of Ontario’s community services infrastructure to continue delivering the critical services that meet the unique needs of communities across the province.
