Support Ontario Horse Racing At Liberal Leadership Convention

Published: January 10, 2013 01:32 pm EST

As the Liberal Party will elect its next leader amid pledges to reconnect with Rural Ontario, Ontario horse racing is urged to show support for the industry at the 2013 Liberal leadership convention.

"With 55,000 lives in the balance, we need to show the newly-elected Premier how important our industry is," said driver Anthony MacDonald. "Everyday 600,000 Ontarians wake up jobless. There is no excuse to make it 655,000.

"This is a great industry full of hard-working people who were confident that their livelihoods were secure, their sons and daughters were going to school and coming home to employed, functioning families. Why put more hard working Ontarians out of work?"

The leadership convention runs from January 25-27 at Ryerson's Mattamy Athletic Centre at Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto, Ont.

"We need our government to help us understand why we may all be unemployed on April 1," continued MacDonald. "Show up, show support and join the growing number of Ontarians asking why?"
