Local MPP Brian Saunderson has retracted his 'shut your mouth' remark after a heated exchange with NDP MPP Lisa Gretzky at Queen's Park. The incident occurred during a debate over Bill 119 on June 1. Saunderson, whose riding includes Essa, Adjala-Tosorontio and Clearview townships, was speaking during the debate when he paused mid-sentence to look across the room and say, 'You had your turn.' Gretzky was not pleased with Saunderson's comment and responded by saying that she had not had her turn. The exchange was captured on camera and has been widely reported in the media. Saunderson has since apologized for his remark, saying that it was 'inappropriate and inexcusable.'
