Anti-Bullying Legislation

Premier Dalton McGuinty is said to be revealing a new anti-bullying legislation today during a visit to a Toronto school.

The sources tell The Canadian Press that the new legislation is aimed at making Ontario schools safer and more accepting.

The bill proposes tougher consequences for bullying and hate-motivated actions.

It would also require all schools to support students who want to lead activities that promote understanding, acceptance and respect for all.

McGuinty's video entitled ``It Gets Better'' encourages students, teachers, parents and community members to do their part to help end bullying
