The Liberal government has released its new poverty reduction plan.
One person who isn’t impressed with the plan is Randy Pettapiece.
The plan, which was unveiled yesterday, includes millions of dollars for homelessness prevention strategies and providing health benefits for children and youth in low-income families.
The Perth-Wellington MPP says the government doesn’t seem committed to it:

Pettapiece adds the Liberals aren’t addressing the most important issue, a lack of jobs:

The plan also includes an increase in the maximum Ontario Child Benefit payout.
