The leaders of Ontario’s three main political parties used the third and final debate of the 2018 provincial election campaign to launch pointed attacks about each other’s integrity, as well as their credibility and track records on a number of high-profile public policy issues affecting voters.
The issues raised Sunday evening touched on everything from ‘hallway medicine,’ to improving child care services, reducing hydro rates, Hydro One executives’ compensation and how the parties’ would bankroll their respective election promises.
The hour and a half-long debate grew heated at a number of points as Liberal leader Kathleen Wynne, Progressive Conservative leader Doug Ford, and NDP leader Andrea Horwath talked over one another repeatedly and butted in with accusations of dishonesty and inaccuracy.
Sunday night’s debate in downtown Toronto, represented the last televised leaders’ debate before Ontarians head to the polls on June 7.
