Ontario’s Long-Term Report on
the Economy
Highlights
Ministry of Finance
January 2010
Purpose of the Report
• This is the second long-range assessment of the economy
prepared by the McGuinty government
• Ontario’s Long-Term Report on the Economy:
• Informs and inspires public debate about the long-term issues facing Ontario
• Supports the public debate with reliable information and relevant analysis
• Advances the principles of transparency in decision-making and
accountability with Ontarians.
1
Overview
•
Ontario’s Long-Term Report on the Economy highlights the long-term challenges
and opportunities the province faces over the next 20 years
•
While Ontario is projected to see healthy population growth of 28 per cent to
2030, key challenges include aging and slowing growth in the working-age
population:
• Seniors will account for 21.9 per cent of Ontario’s population by 2030, up from
13.7 per cent today – this is expected to increase demand for health care
• Working-age population (15–64) expected to increase by 13.5 per cent to 2030,
about half the growth seen over the previous two decades
•
Expanding productive capacity, increased tax competitiveness and global
and domestic demand are expected to result in average real GDP growth of
2.6 per cent in Ontario from 2010 to 2030, comparable to the past, despite
slower growth of working-age population.

Chapter 1: Demographic Trends and Projections
• Five key demographic trends are projected over the next 20 years:
• Population growth will be healthy but the pace will moderate
• Immigration will continue to drive population growth
• Seniors will represent a much higher proportion of the population
• Working-age population growth will slow
• Large urban centres will continue to experience the fastest rates of population growth.
• Far-reaching implications of the demographic outlook:
• Slowing labour force growth may restrain future economic growth
• Increased labour force participation and workplace flexibility will need to be encouraged to mitigate
the impact of baby boomers retiring
• Population growth and aging will increase pressure on government spending, notably health care
• Regional differences in population growth and age structure will require targeted policy responses
• Population aging will affect the composition of personal income and spending, potentially affecting
government revenues
• As the population ages, Canada’s retirement income system faces important challenges.

Chapter 2: Long-Term Ontario Economic Projection
• Provides a projection of Ontario’s macroeconomic growth from 2010–2030.
Expanding productive capacity, increased tax competitiveness and global
and domestic demand are expected to result in average real GDP growth of
2.6 per cent from 2010 to 2030, a pace comparable to the past despite slower
labour force growth and increased global competition
• Chapter also discusses:
• Fundamental determinants of long-term capacity — the supply of labour,
the stock of capital and productivity
• Key external factors that affect economic performance — performance of the
economy in other jurisdictions, commodity prices, the Canadian dollar
exchange rate and interest rates
• Risks to the economic projection
• The perspective of other jurisdictions on long-term economic growth.

Chapter 3: Long-Term Sustainability of Public Services
•
The economic and demographic projections in previous chapters have implications for the
demand for public services in Ontario
•
A doubling of the senior population by 2030 expected to increase demand for health care.
Other factors that will drive the demand for and cost of health care services include changes
in population health status, patients’ expectations, inflation, technology and medical practice
•
Education spending will reflect the increasing number of elementary and secondary
school-aged children over the next 20 years. Differences in growth among regions will
mean both rise and fall of enrolment at the local level
•
Emphasis on lifelong learning and services for underrepresented groups, including new
immigrants, expected to raise demand for training services
•
The impact of an aging population on economic growth expected to slow revenue growth,
particularly as it lowers growth of the taxation revenue base — mitigated somewhat by
increasing withdrawals from savings by seniors. Federal transfers also expected to respond
to growing provincial demand for services due to demographic and economic factors
•
The McGuinty government will ensure the province returns to a firm and sustainable fiscal
footing. Treasury Board/Management Board of Cabinet conducting an expenditure review
and the government will deliver its plan in 2010 Budget.

Chapter 4: Modernizing Ontario’s Tax System for
Jobs and Growth
• The comprehensive tax package announced in the 2009 Budget creates a more modern tax system
that will better support long-term economic growth, create more jobs, raise incomes and help sustain
the public services Ontarians rely on
• The comprehensive tax package:
• Replaces the Retail Sales Tax with a value added tax that is combined with the federal Goods and Services
Tax (GST) to create a 13 per cent Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) starting July 1, 2010; and
• Provides $15 billion in temporary and permanent tax relief to people and businesses over three years
• Tax measures in the package make Ontario significantly more attractive for new business
investment and allow businesses to improve their competitiveness by lowering their prices
• The comprehensive tax package, together with other recent tax changes, will cut Ontario’s marginal effective
tax rate (METR) on new business investment in half, making Ontario a highly attractive location for
businesses to invest and create jobs
• A study by accounting firm KPMG also shows that the comprehensive tax package significantly improves
Ontario’s tax competitiveness
• A recent study by Professor Jack Mintz estimates that within 10 years the comprehensive tax
package, together with other recent tax changes, will provide large benefits for Ontario — $47 billion
in new business investment, 591,000 net new jobs and higher annual incomes of up to 8.8 per cent.

Chapter 5: Addressing Ontario’s Infrastructure Gap
• Improving public infrastructure can boost Ontario’s productivity,
encourage investment, lower business costs and improve
travel times
• Growing urban populations, an expanding economy and climate
change will increase the demand for infrastructure
• Chapter outlines the Province’s response to these infrastructure
challenges:
• $32.5 billion infrastructure stimulus investments over two years in all key
sectors and the $30 billion ReNew Ontario completed in 2008–09 are laying
a foundation for future productivity and economic growth
• Greening energy and infrastructure will support the transition to a
low-carbon future, a key to sustaining Ontario’s long-term prosperity.
