Consultations (survey) are open for the 2024 provincial budget.
The 2024 Budget will continue to build a strong Ontario by focusing on the economy and ensuring key infrastructure and services are available for our growing and aging communities. But we need your feedback. Tell us how the Ontario government can support your family, business or community...

The survey is about 10-15M long, and generally consists of 'prioritize your top 3' in a series of groups about supporting business, the vulnerable, managing economic uncertainty, filling worker shortages etc.
If you like the choices, and find them specific enough, just pick from the available; but I would commend you if you have specific thoughts to pick one of your three as ' other' this will give you space for a write-in priority.
An example might be where one option is prioritize commuter costs, instead of picking that, you could pick other and support a lower GO Base fare, or fare-capping on all public transit systems in Ontario at 40 rides per month.
That last one would lower the cost of a monthly pass to $132 on the TTC.
You can also choose to submit your own proposal.
I'm not naive that these are generally given high weight; but I will tell you, I've seen the odd idea of mine slip into the budget over the years, low effort for potentially good reward.
