Proud of McGuinty

http://www.thestar.com/news/ontario/article/663147

While the Tories are putting regressive politics in front of real economic stimulus (Pride Week in Toronto leaves a $100-million economic footprint, creates 650 jobs and generates $18-million in government tax revenue), McGuinty is doing the right thing by vocally supporting a great Toronto event.

"It's one of the single largest tourism draws to benefit our province, it generates millions and millions of dollars, it awakens more and more of the world to the fact that we have a tolerant, accepting society here in Ontario and here in Canada," McGuinty said yesterday.

That's some real common sense to me. I wonder what Tim Hudak thinks of funding Pride?
