Tories to use suggestions on website to help form policies

The issue of should Ontario have one school board for everyone came up again this month.  The public school boards in the north support the concept and the chair of the Near North board suggested voters talk to their MPPs about the issue.  Moose News asked MPP for Nipissing Vic Fedeli if the Tories support the one school board concept.  Fedeli says the public can voice their views on a website the party created that deals with education and other issues.  The Tories will formulate their policies from the ideas posted on the website and finalize them at a convention this fall.  The site can be reached at www.forontario.ca
