Hudak Pledges Slots To Fort Erie
Ontario Progressive Conservative leader Tim Hudak made a brief appearance in his hometown on Sunday afternoon, saying he would re-open the slots at the Fort Erie Race Track if he becomes premier after Thursday's election.
The news comes courtesy of a report by Bullet News Niagara.
The Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corp. removed its slot machines from the Fort Erie Race Track, the Hiawatha Horse Park and Windsor Raceway as part of its gaming modernization plan.
The Bullet News Niagara report did not cite Hudak as mentioning whether slot machines would return to Hiawatha or be introduced at another track in the Windsor area now that Windsor Raceway is closed.
