Dinner with Tourism Minister Fonseca


Last night I went to a dinner with some of the innkeepers from the association of Ontarios Finest Inns & Spas as well as Huron-Bruce MPP Carol Mitchell and Ontario Tourism Minister Peter Fonseca. I was sure to (point out) ask the minister if he noticed on the drive through Perth and Huron Counties that the farmland is well tilled, the farm drives are paved, the flower beds are manicured and possibly a Cadillac in the driveway! He thoughtfully agreed, I then explained that my little company is poised to make a serious contribution to culinary tourism in the region which is one of the identified areas of tourism related economic growth for the ministry. 
I gave the minister my card and offered any assistance with rolling out new programs and/or partnerships; Minister Fonseca my phonecall awaits!
