Thank you for your response. I must admit however that I do have some concern as to the efforts expended by Ontario representatives elected to the Canadian Federal Government. Their efforts on ensuring that Ontario has equal representation with other Provinces has very little credence. In fact it could be said that they have betrayed Ontario citizens.
I would look at your efforts in representing Ontario citizens to be of far greater importance, as your MPP, has been elected by citizens in Ontario to represent Ontario. I trust that your perspective will be far greater, rather than that of a Federal Government representative from Ontario that does not appear to have the concerns of Ontario at heart.
John,
Our apologies for not replying earlier, but we would like to share this information with our federal member in Bruce-Grey-Owen Sound.
Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. Please do not hesitate to contact us again.

Subject: Conservative Party - Lack of Response
To Conservative members of the Ontario Legislature.
A recent e-mail correspondence was forwarded to all elected members of the Ontario Legislature.
Answers have been received from both the NDP & Liberal Parties as to their interest in providing Ontario citizens with the best possible initiatives.
No answer has been received from the Conservative Party. Are we do assume that Conservatives do not have the interests best served by their elected members, or is it that Ontario Conservatives wish to follow Federal quidelines?
From the Liberal Party:

John, Paul Miller's office has forwarded your ideas to me on this issue. Recently, at a combined federal/provincial NDP riding association meeting for Timmins-James Bay, we passed a resolution to work towards such a plan. I will be discussing this further with Paul.
Thanks - Gilles

Dear Mr. Halonen,
Thank you for sending this e-mail to MPP Miller; it is an interesting suggestion.
As well as providing NDP MPP Miller, critic for Economic Development and Trade, with your e-mail, by copy of this response I am sending your proposal to NDP MPP Gilles Bisson, MPP for Timmins – James Bay, as well as critic for Natural Resources and Transportation, for his information.
We will look very carefully at your proposal and discuss our position on it. As far as contacting the Premier to include this issue in his discussions with the Prime Minister, I suggest that you send your proposal directly to the Premier's office through his website –

from which you can e-mail him.

Forwarded to all Members of Ontario Legislature
Subject: Ontario Premier to meet with Prime Minister Harper - Economic Summit
Please
use your influence to contact our Premier of Ontario and include for discussion with the Prime Minister of Canada during the Minister`s Economic meeting this month.
Subject:
North American Super Corridor
History
: Manitoba`s Premier has mentioned in his address to the legislature that Manitoba has been in discussion for five years on this subject, as to building a pathway to Hudson Bay to facilitate the movement of goods delivered via Ocean vessels to the mid-west US marketplace and Mexico.
Saskatchewan has addressed a possibility of building the pathway thru their province.
Proposal:
Ontario should be thought of as an alternative to the proposed route, via linkage to James Bay.
Reason:
James Bay currently has rail traffic, and there is a highway sytem currently in place that could be upgraded to accomodate major movement of shipping goods.
James Bay is also much closer to population centres across North America and would allow for greater Ocean traffic to a port that would allow easy entry to most of our population in North America. Linkage is still available to mid west US marketplaces via current highway systems in place today. Even the distance to Winnipeg, Manitoba from James Bay is not that much greater than Churchill, Manitoba.
Justification:
Least Cost and with current access .
