Ontario Team

On Monday, the Ontario New Democratic Party (NDP) unveiled their campaign platform, “Strong. Ready. Working For You.” making it the first party out of the gate to release its platform for the 2022 election. The platform touches on many of the issues deemed as priority by Ontarians over the last four years. An alternative viewpoint is that the platform has something for everyone.

The NDP platform includes its previously released planks:

Homes you can afford (a strategy to address home prices);
Climate. Jobs. Justice: A Green New Democratic Deal (a strategy for the province to reach Net Zero by 2050 while creating jobs); and
Aging Ontarians Deserve the Best (a plan to move long-term care and home care to the public sector).

It also includes commitments made in the last few months in the lead up to the election.

The strategy stays technology-agnostic between CANDU, AP1000, and Gen IV designs, leans on existing financing tools rather than new funding (with a dedicated financing policy due next April), and frames nuclear as central to doubling Canada's grid capacity and capturing global export demand as countries move away from Russian supply chains.
