Ontario legislature resumes today after break

Ontario’s legislature is set to return today after taking a break in mid-September.

Top priorities for the government include housing, the economy and health care.

The province continues to face several crises, including overwhelmed hospitals, rising inflation and a housing crunch.

The Progressive Conservative government is expected to introduce housing legislation today as part of its goal of building 1.5 million homes in 10 years.

The return of the legislature comes after the Emergencies Act Inquiry in relation to the so-called ‘Freedom Convoy’ has summoned Premier Doug Ford and former solicitor general Sylvia Jones to testify.
