Mayor David Henderson has slammed Progressive Conservative Leader Doug Ford for suggesting that municipal infrastructure grants by a PC government would depend on municipalities first cutting their own budgets.
“The result will be a slash-and-burn to municipal budgets, cutting valued social services and forcing higher property taxes,” said Henderson, who is running for the Liberals in the June 7 provincial election.
Henderson said Ford’s proposal would see Eastern Ontario municipalities, including Brockville, “knuckling under to his downtown Toronto orders.”
