We find out today how the Ontario government has been spending money.

Auditor General Bonnie Lysysk is to deliver her annual report, including the cost-effectiveness of COVID-19-related contracts and whether Ontario's vaccination program was cost-effective.

The report will also cover highway planning and management, financial management in universities and management of invasive species.
