Algonquin Highlands Mayor says provincial party leaders offered no solutions at conference to tackle infrastructure deficit

Algonquin Highlands Mayor Carol Moffatt is scratching her head.

Moffatt says all provincial party leaders are against a one per cent increase to the H.S.T. to help municipalities tackle a near $5 billion infrastructure deficit.

Moffatt says no solutions were put forward by the province over how to address the infrastructure shortcoming.

She adds municipalities only get a small portion of tax dollars despite owning three quarters of the roads and bridges.

Moffatt and other municipal politicians were at a conference this week in Ottawa with provincial ministers.
