Ontario's construction industry is paralyzed by economic uncertainty, government red-tape and bureaucracy. We need to build the critical infrastructure our communities rely on to keep Ontario’s skilled workforce on the job and move our economy forward. torontosun.com/opinion/column…

Shame. While the @cityofguelph faces a $355 million infrastructure deficit, followed by a slow construction year, they choose to cut and defer critical infrastructure projects. We need to keep building and keep people working. guelphtoday.com/local-news/cit…

Time for municipalities to follow suit.

NEW - The Ford government announces that Ontario Public Service workers will be required to return to the office full-time starting in 2026. Minister Mulroney: "The return to a five days per week in-workplace standard represents the current workforce landscape in the province"



While municipalities continue to collect development charges and other fees, capital spending and infrastructure tenders decrease every year. It’s time to spend these funds. Tender the projects. Build infrastructure and keep people working. globalnews.ca/news/11293189/…
