TORONTO – Ontario’s Progressive Conservative leader is expected to reveal details of his plan to create one million jobs during a campaign stop today north of Toronto.<\/p>\n

Tim Hudak says the June 12 provincial election is about one thing and one thing only: jobs, and he boasts he can create a million of them if the Conservatives form the next government.<\/p>\n

So far he’s offered few specifics on his plan, which he says also includes lowering taxes, ending corporate welfare and reducing the debt.<\/p>\n

NDP Leader Andrea Horwath will be campaigning in Niagara Falls and London, Ont., today, while Liberal Premier Kathleeen Wynne will be in Ottawa and Kingston.<\/p>\n

Horwath said yesterday she couldn’t trust the governing Liberals to implement their budget plan, which is why she said New Democrats would vote against it, triggering Wynne’s election call.<\/p>\n

Wynne toured hardware technology companies in Kitchener and Brampton yesterday to tout her government’s efforts to bolster post-secondary education and help businesses.<\/p>\n

Ontario voters got a taste of political ads in the first few days of the election campaign, but they won’t be running on TV, radio or in print for the next two weeks.<\/p>\n

Chief Electoral Officer Greg Essensa says a blackout on political advertising came into effect after Lt. Gov. David Onley signed the writs and remains in effect until 11:59 p.m. on May 20.<\/p>\n

Essensa says a blackout at the beginning of a campaign is only imposed if there’s a snap election call and is aimed at preventing the governing party from gaining an edge by having political advertising ready to go as soon as the vote is announced.<\/p>\n

A second blackout period begins at midnight on June 10 and ends at 11:59 p.m. on election day.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
