Paul de Jong from the Progressive Contractors Association of Canada discusses Ontario's Bill 66, "Restoring Ontario's Competitiveness Act," and its importance to ensuring all construction workers have equal access to work through competition in the Toronto Star. Research from the prominent think tank Cardus, shows the Region of Waterloo, which adopted the legislation, is already benefiting from construction competition. More bids have lowered costs, saving the region $24 million so far.
