Frank Mahovlich gives Fricot assist

A Toronto Maple Leaf turned Ottawa Senator is putting his support behind Thunder Bay-Superior North Liberal Candidate Yves Fricot. Liberal Senator Frank Mahovlich was in town Saturday making the rounds with Fricot. The hockey legend and Timmins native says from where he stands the Liberal party is a good fit for Northwestern Ontario because he feels the Liberals have done a lot for Canada. Mahovlich cited the Pearson and Trudeau governments as examples and says the party feels Michael Ignatieff could be the same kind of leader. In addition to talking politics, Mahovlich spent much of his time signing autographs and talking hockey with eager fans.
