Conservatives Supporting FedNor


The Harper Conservatives are again committing themselves to FedNor.

Speaking in Thunder Bay, the minister responsible Tony Clement says despite what the other parties may say, the regional development program is not in any danger.

"We are committed to FedNor," says Clement. "We were the first party when we were in government to actually FedNor guaranteed funding for five years and we have improved upon that funding in our proposed budget."

Clement was in the city to help support the area's Conservative candidates.
