Use a Debt Repayment Calculator to Build Your Payoff Plan

Stop Guessing. Start Calculating. Knowing you have debt is one thing. Knowing exactly when it will be gone — and how much interest you'll pay along the way — is something entirely different. That's where a Debt Repayment Calculator earns its keep. Whether you're carrying a credit card balance, a car loan, a student loan, or a combination of all three, a repayment calculator takes the guesswork out of your payoff journey and puts you in the driver's seat.

Ontario PCs Unveil $40-Billion Platform, Promise to Eliminate Alcohol Floor Price

Ontario's Progressive Conservatives, led by Doug Ford, have unveiled a campaign platform promising up to $40 billion in new spending. This announcement comes just three days before the provincial election. The platform includes several previously unannounced measures, such as a $5-billion Protect Ontario Account to counter potential U.S. tariffs, $705 million to expand STEM and skilled trades training at post-secondary institutions, and $50 million to support modular housing technology.

One of the most notable promises is the proposal to eliminate the minimum retail price for liquor. Currently, the minimum price for a 750-millilitre bottle of vodka is set to rise to $31.15 this weekend. Ford argues that removing the floor price will save consumers money and put more money back into their pockets, likening it to a tax break.

The platform, however, does not include a full costing breakdown of how these promises will be funded. Ford defended the absence of detailed cost estimates by citing his government's track record of fiscal responsibility over the past seven years.

As the election day approaches, voters will have to weigh these ambitious promises against the potential impact on the province's budget and economic stability.
