TORONTO - The gold-plated pension plans for Ontario government employees need to be changed to be more like ones in the private sector, which are more sustainable for both employees and taxpayers, PC Leader Tim Hudak said Thursday.

“Governments and union leaders too often make promises about benefits way down the road knowing they have no plan to pay for them. In contrast, the private sector has had to adapt to today’s fiscal realities as they’ve struggled with the rising cost of doing business,” Hudak said.
