Ignatieff in Kenora

The Leader of Canada's official opposition isn't hinting if and when he might withdraw his support for the Harper Government.

Michael Ignatieff was in Kenora last night for a town hall style meeting.

He says its clear that Canadians weren't in the mood for a fall election, but isn't sure how long he will be willing to prop up the Conservative government.

Ignatieff says the key to getting northwestern Ontario out of its economic slump is more research and development in the forestry sector, to develop new products that can be marketed around the world.
