Prue blasts Finance Minister’s benefit blame game
NDP MPP Michael Prue blasted Finance Minister Dwight Duncan’s assertion that Ontario’s social assistance rates will not increase until the Fall due to a “computer system”.
“All Ontarians ought to be outraged by this blame game. The Minister is callously using the crutch of a faulty computer system to explain why social assistance recipients have to wait several months to get a measly two per cent increase in their benefits. Minister Duncan should be ashamed of himself,” fumed Prue.
