From Niagara This Week:
Saving $40 or $50 on a weekend getaway to Niagara Falls might not sound like a huge amount when you consider a family can spend hundreds of dollars for such things as staying at a hotel, eating in restaurants and seeing various attractions.
But John Tory, leader of the Ontario Progressive Conservative party, figures it’s enough to entice the many of the millions of so-called day trippers mulling a visit to Niagara Falls this summer to grab the kids and hop in the car.

I think that $40 or $50 definitely makes a difference. I think it offsets the rising gas prices, to a certain extent, and that’s what makes people not want to drive to Niagara Falls. My cousins live out in Belleville and they aren’t coming in this year because the roadtrip is gonna be too much $$. I don’t think that Tory’s whole RST thing is gonna save the entire tourism industry or the economy, but I think it cant hurt. Plus, has anyone heard anything from the lib gov about how THEY are gonna be helping? i sure havent.
