Federal Torys Fail - Provincial Grits Step Up

It seems that while Mr. Harper is finding better places to go than Copenhagen, Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty has stepped up according to the Globe & Mail:
One half of Ontario's vast boreal forest will be permanently protected from mining and other resource development projects as part of a sweeping plan unveiled by Premier Dalton McGuinty to combat climate change.
The government will protect at least 225,000 square kilometres from development, representing one half of the boreal region in the far north and an area 1.5 times greater in size than all the Maritime provinces combined
It is good to see that the matter of climate change matters to the Liberals.
