👉The upcoming budget in Ontario, set to be tabled by Premier Doug Ford's government, will focus on auto insurance changes aimed at providing drivers with more options to reduce premiums, according to insiders. Industry sources familiar with the plans reveal that the reforms will expand choices for Ontario drivers to lower their car insurance costs. While Finance Minister Peter Bethlenfalvy's spokesperson neither confirmed nor denied the specifics, stating the government's continuous efforts to enhance consumer choice and streamline processes, the budget is expected to highlight measures to empower consumers in selecting their coverage plans. This marks the government's second major attempt at auto insurance reforms since 2019, aiming to address concerns about Ontario's highest average car insurance premiums nationwide. Despite no specific targets for reducing premiums, the proposed changes align with the PC party's campaign promise to offer consumers more options when purchasing automobile insurance. However, sources indicate that the budget will not set a universal target for premium reduction but will instead focus on increasing "optionality" for customers, allowing them greater flexibility in choosing coverage plans.✅ .

👉Ontario is prolonging a temporary tax cut aimed at easing the financial burden on drivers at gas stations. Initially implemented in July 2022, the cut reduces gasoline tax by 5.7 cents per liter and diesel fuel tax by 5.3 cents per liter. Premier Doug Ford announced the extension until the year's end, emphasizing the government's commitment to cost-saving measures during a press conference in Mississauga. Legislation to extend the gas tax cut until December 31, 2024, will be introduced through the 2024 budget on March 26. The province estimates that these tax breaks have annually saved households an average of $320 since their inception. Finance Minister Peter Bethlenfalvy underscores the government's proactive stance in combating high inflation and interest rates. Ford's initial promise to lower gas prices by 10 cents per liter during the 2018 election campaign was partly fulfilled by ending the cap-and-trade system. However, the subsequent implementation of the federal carbon tax nullified some of these savings. Ford urges the federal government to reconsider the planned increase in the carbon tax scheduled for April 1, citing additional financial strain on Ontarians.✅ .

👉Ontario's Transportation Minister, Prabmeet Sarkaria, announced a province-wide ban on tolls for all highways, including the recently uploaded Don Valley Parkway and Gardiner Expressway in Toronto. The legislation, set to be introduced next week, ensures no new tolls will be imposed unless the law is repealed. Premier Doug Ford had previously pledged against tolling the newly uploaded roads. Notably, Highway 407 tolls will persist, being set by a private company. The move is part of broader changes, including a permanent freeze on driver's license fees and automatic license plate renewal.✅ .
