Harper speaks at Conservative Rally

The Prime Minister wrapped up his visit Friday by speaking at a Conservative rally at the Victoria Inn.

Stephen Harper began his speech by name dropping some local hockey heroes. He also had some complements for Conservative candidates Maureen Comuzzi-Stehmann and Richard Harvey.

Harper said out of the four years the Conservatives have been in power this has been the "greatest for Canada" and touted everything from Olympic gold to the G8-G20 meetings and the nation's global economic standing to make his case.

Harper also reiterated his party will work to abolish the long gun registry even if the Tories come up on the short end of next Wednesday's vote.
