Ontario's members of provincial parliament (MPPs) are set to see significant pay increases and gain a pension plan under a new bill introduced by Finance Minister Peter Bethlenfalvy. This change marks the first salary adjustment since 2009, with base pay jumping from $116,550 to $157,350. Premier Doug Ford's salary will rise significantly as will that of cabinet ministers. The pension plan, which has been absent since 1993, will be integrated into the Public Service Pension Plan, granting additional benefits for long-serving members.
Ontario's MPPs are set to receive significant salary raises and access to a pension plan, the first in over 30 years, to align with federal standards.
The government's proposal is described as a bipartisan effort, with the base pay for elected officials rising from $116,550 to $157,350 to reflect inflation and align compensation.
