Too many years of chronic underinvestment in new and expanded manufacturing capacity played a starring role in our current productivity crisis. But, times are changing! It was great to catch-up with Minister Victor Fedeli and hear that he is keeping his blistering pace of attracting new investment to Ontario. At the rate he is going, by this time next year the $27 billion that this government has attracted will be massively eclipsed. This manufacturing resurgence is the shot in the arm we need for future jobs and economic growth in the Toronto region and the province.

Productive morning meeting with the President and CEO of the Toronto Region Board of Trade, Giles Gherson. Great to get an update on their work connecting #Ontario businesses with the right partners, tools and resources to grow and succeed in our competitive business environment.
