Write About Ontario

According to Travel Weekly, Ontario is going to shell out the big bucks to bring back tourists post SARS. It might be a good time to pitch some Ottawa stories. Here's a link to Ottawa Tourism. While several publications do not take articles from sponsored trips, there are some that are too small to say no to that. From what I hear (I haven't done this just yet), tourist boards prefer that you have an assignment before they hand over the goods. It would seem to me that if a region is shelling out marketing cash, there's a good chance they'll have some budget to help with your travels if you're going to promote them in your travel writing outlets. Good luck.
