Hudak Will Not Make Debate

Tim Hudak will not show up for the northern leaders election debate in Thunder Bay next week.  His spokesperson  says the PC leader has scheduling conflicts.  Organizer Iain Angus of the Northwestern Ontario Municipal Association says the event will go ahead anyway with the NDP's Andrea Horwath and Kathleen Wynne of the Liberals.  Angus says the precedent was set during the last election when the northern debate went on without Dalton McGuinty.
