Conservative Source: Lions Club

Divisive Issue Dept: It s easy to see why. The issue is delicate, and if the tone isn t right, it could alienate the immigrant community that conservative political parties have spent the better part of a decade courting, according to Globe and Mail. The dangers of stressing the divisive issue were clear on Tuesday night when Mr. Hudak addressed party faithful at a Lions Club hall in Kingsville. After Mr. Hudak mentioned the program and slammed Mr. McGuinty over it, someone in the crowd yelled bastard. Mr. Hudak didn t hear him properly and had him repeat it, but when he realized what the man had said, moved on to something else and the decision to back off highlights a fundamental shift in the tone of the Ontario election campaign, which has so far been fought on an issue that didn t exist before the writ dropped. Polls suggest the Conservative Party is losing support in the Greater Toronto Area after a week of warning about the dangers of foreign workers. Now it wants to start pushing its own agenda rather than attacking the Liberals. There are other things to talk about, a senior Conservative source said on Wednesday. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
