It's budget day in Ontario and to soften the blow, the budget will include a one-thousand dollar goodie for families earning less than 160-thousand dollars a year.

The money will help families cope with a single, 13-per cent sales tax that combines the provincial sales tax and the G-S-T.

Sources say the merger won't kick in for at least several months and when it does, the one-thousand dollars will be paid out in three installments.
