Queen's Park must be the first stop in Toronto's search for a solution to its billion dollar deficit, Canada's innovation minister says.
François-Philippe Champagne made the comments Monday at a City Hall press conference where he was flanked by local Liberal MPs and Mayor Olivia Chow. The federal minister weighed-in on Toronto's troubled finances less than a week after council adopted new taxes and fees to head off what city staff call an "unprecedented financial crisis."
"We are listening, but also we need to be fair," Champagne said. "There's a door you need to knock [on] first and I think this first door is at Queen's Park."
