Parliment Hill squabble

Thunder Bay Rainy River MP John Rafferty isn't giving up the fight for Northwestern Ontario's border communities. Rafferty alleges the Federal Government diverted 50 million dollars from the Border Infrastructure fund to beautify towns in the Minister's riding. Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird took the time to answer and reiterated that they didn't misspend the funds. The issue was raised in Wednesday's session on Parliament Hill.
