Mayor Presses Province For Declaration

The mayor is getting a bit impatient with the province's delay in declaring Thunder Bay a disaster area. Keith Hobbs says he's been trying to light a fire under some local politicians. Hobbs says he spoke with MPP Bill Mauro and pointed out that a disaster was declared in one day in Goderich after its tornado, and it's been nine days here. Speaking of politicians, NDP leader Andrea Horwath is going to tour the flood area on Friday.
