For Immediate Release - January 10, 2020

QUEEN’S PARK -- Mike Schreiner released the following statement after the release of the December jobs numbers:

“The Ford government must stop talking out of both sides of its mouth.

If they are going to tout a strong economy, then they must drop the act about the carbon tax hurting the economy.

These numbers undermine the Conservative rhetoric and confirm that putting a price on climate pollution does not harm the economy.

It is shameful that Conservatives keep up the charade against the carbon tax while totally ignoring the climate crisis that is threatening our future.

Once again, I call on the Premier to stop sabotaging climate solutions and drop the $30 million lawsuit.”
