Left always believe that middle to upper class people need to support low income people. The problem with this argument is that you cannot tax people to wealth.

5. ONTARIO GUARANTEE
INCOME• Volunteers in Peterborough and the City of Kawartha Lakes have
been lobbying to be test communities for Basic Income Guarantees, a
program that ensures every resident has enough money for food, rent
and other necessities. The goal of the program is to create a healthier
population so there are fewer demands on health and other social
services when people fall into crisis.
• Retired Senator Hugh Segal’s report on a minimum income for
Ontario was released in November. It would see Ontario set up a
multi-year pilot to measure its effectiveness starting in April, 2017.
Segal recommends a monthly payment of at least $1,320 for a single
person which is about 75 per cent of the province’s poverty line.

7. WAGE GROWTH
Spencer Fernando – April 8, 2017
As reported by Bloomberg, average hourly wage increases were up
1.1% year-over-year, which was the lowest increase since 1998. It is
also far below the historical average of 2.7% in the last 10 years.
When looking further into the numbers, things are even worse for
permanent workers. They had the lowest wage growth since 1997.
And when it comes to the province-by-province picture, the increase
in Ontario was only 0.1% year-over-year, which is the lowest
increase ever recorded.
So much for Sunny Ways!!

9. ENERGY POVERTY – PREMIER WYNNE
• There has been no shortage of industry experts or professors on this show
over the years that warned we were heading for energy poverty.
• Why did she ignore the catastrophic confirmation from experts, including
her own party sources, and continue to double down while wallowing in her
majority?
• Why did they not scrap the act that lacked due diligence, along with cost
analysis, and start over?
• Wynne play on people’s sensitivity for the environment

10. BLOG – GUARANTEE INCOME /
SWITZERLAND
Switzerland said no to Guarantee Income –
• “In Switzerland, opponents warned that the proposal would derail an economic model
that, far from showing signs of near-collapse, has allowed the country to remain among
those with the highest living standards in the world, even with a growing and aging
population. Switzerland has an unemployment rate of around 3.5 percent, less than half
the average in the European Union. The backers of the plan did not detail how it would
be financed. But the Swiss government and almost all the main political parties had
urged voters to turn down the guaranteed income plan, warning that it would require
raising an additional 25 billion Swiss francs a year through deep spending cuts or tax
increases.”

income.html
• The MP table the change has said nothing about the $185B that is already available to
various groups as part of the income re-distribution. We have seen in Scandinavia countries
that if you change income with people then it does not motivate them to achieve more in
life.
• Let's face facts current programs that support low income except for minimum wage are
paid out a tax bucket. So, if you make changes then you likely going to either change
threshold for people or you are going take control of the money and lump into one group of
people. The problem with guarantee income it means different things to different groups of
people.
