A double-booking at the Granite Club?

I guess the Premier of Toronto has way more important stuff to do that day...
“The Ontario PC Party is announcing that if Dalton McGuinty is unwilling to make the trip to northern Ontario for the debate, we will foot the bill for him to participate via video-conference from north Toronto,” the Conservatives said Thursday in a news release.
What's up with that? I guess all us "dumb as dogshit" hillbillies who choose not to live in the center of the universe don't deserve to bask in his august presence...
So far, NDP Leader Andrea Horwath and PC Leader Tim Hudak have confirmed they will participate in the debate, and are prepared to leave an empty chair for McGuinty.

McGuinty said thanks, but no thanks to Hudak’s offer.
