You can’t build Ontario on a crumbling foundation: Recommendations to strengthen the social safety net

Download the submission

The government’s plan to build Ontario up will not work unless it is done on a solid foundation – and that foundation is the social safety net.

To this end, Maytree calls on the Ontario government to:

1. Improve the adequacy of the social assistance system;
2. Strengthen the broader income support system for unattached working-age adults and people with disabilities;
3. Support the protection and development of affordable housing; and
4. Complement the efforts of other governments to improve income and housing security.
