The 2022 Ontario general election was held on June 2, 2022 to elect the 124 members of the 43rd Parliament of Ontario. The Progressive Conservative (PC) Party of Ontario, led by Doug Ford, won a majority government with 83 of the 124 seats in the legislature. The incumbent party, they increased their seat share from 76 in the 2018 election. They campaigned on a slogan to “get it done,” pledging to build highways and transit infrastructure and open up the “Ring of Fire,” a mineral-rich area in northern Ontario. Instead of an election platform, the Ontario PC Party presented its promises on its website in the form of press releases throughout the campaign.

Justification

As no action has been taken so far to either improve enforcement or hire more conservation officers, this promise remains not yet rated.

“Fewer than 180 boots-on-the-ground conservation officers are responsible for protecting the natural resources of our vast province. During the 2018 election campaign, Doug Ford’s Conservatives promised to hire more conservation officers to ‘improve enforcement’ and ‘protect waterways’. Two years later, Ontario is still waiting.”
