Funding, to the tune of $1.8 million, is also pro­ posed for programs to en­ gage men and boys on the importance of gender equality through events like Halton's Hope in High Heels. "These investments will be key in ensuring oppor­ tunities for all Canadians, and I look forward to see­ ing how Budget 2018 will bring equality and growth to Oakville" said Oliver. Burlington MP Karina Gould was also pleased with the announced items including changes to the Canada Workers Benefit (CWB). The government is pro­ posing amendments that will allow the Canada Rev­ enue Agency to automati­ cally determine whether these tax filers are eligible for the benefit. An estimat­ ed 300,000 additional low- income workers will re­ ceive the new CWB for the 2019 tax year as a result of these changes. Specifical­ ly, the government esti­ mates that approximately 108,000 additional low-in­ come Ontario workers will receive the benefit for the 2019 tax year. CWB enhancements, combined with new invest­ ments to make sure that every worker who quali­ fies actually receives the benefit, will mean that the government is investing al­ most $1 billion of new fund­ ing for the benefit in 2019, relative to 2018. It estimates that en­ hancements and improved take-up in 2019 will directly benefit more than two mil­ lion working Canadians, many of whom were not benefiting from the Work­ ing Income Tax Benefit. This, say the Liberals, will help lift approximately 70,000 Canadians out of poverty. "It is estimated that On­ tario low-income workers will be provided with about $1.2 billion more in CWB during the 2018-19 to 2022-23 period as a result of Budget 2018 actions," said Gould. Local reaction Oakville Mayor Rob Burton said the budget takes positive steps to ad­ dress the gender gap. "I am supportive of all of the investments made to provide women with op­ portunities, including bringing more women into the workforce and ensur­ ing men and women are paid equally," said Burton. • See BUDGET, page 23 http://www.august8.ca
