Wayne Gates made the appeal at the Niagara Falls station

Another push by Niagara Falls MPP Wayne Gates to get all day GO train service from Toronto to Niagara Falls.

He stood yesterday at the Niagara Falls station, by a train that had just arrived. "Bring these visitors here from Toronto, and also for people that live in Niagara to get to work, to go watch a Jays game, I'd say watch a Leaf game but they're not going to be in the playoffs this year. So, let's continue to fight and work together."

Metrolinx announced last week it is working on a plan to build a GO station in Grimsby, you can offer your thoughts on the Metrolinx website.
