Members of Thunder Bay City Council won't be travelling to Toronto today to speak with Dalton McGuinty about the Bombardier TTC contract. Toronto Mayor Rob Ford came out of a meeting with the Premier yesterday saying he still plans to nix the streetcar contract. Mayor Keith Hobbs says if that's the case they'll have to take more serious action. Hobbs says they've yet to nail down a meeting with Ford, and notes he would like to invite the Toronto Mayor to tour the Bombardier plant. Councillor Paul Pugh feels Ford is trying to influence council into thinking it's not a matter that requires their votes.
