Local MPP Upset With Lack of Consultation

The McGuinty Government doesn’t care about the concerns of Northwestern Ontario.
That’s the feeling of Kenora-Rainy River MPP Howard Hampton.
Hampton says the Liberals showed their true colours by voting down a motion that calls for more consultation in Northern Ontario.
The NDP member says a lack of consultation will be an election issue this Fall.
Meantime, Hampton is calling on the Province to make border towns more competitive.
He wants the Government to reduce the liquor control board’s mark up on liquor sold by duty-free stores.
Hampton is calling on the mark up to be dropped from 50% to 30%.
