Hampton Blasts government for another Flip-Flop

The New Democrats warn property tax payers will be on the hook for the Ontario government's decision to scrap eco fees that were slapped on thousands of household products July 1st.

Kenora-Rainy River M.P.P. Howard Hampton says the government's decision to back off the eco fees is yet another flip-flop by the Liberal government.

There was no public warning that eco fees would be put on thousands of household items on July 1st, and the government faced a major backlash from consumers and retailers.
