Honourable Sophia Aggelonitis, Minister of Consumer Services last week reminded Ontario consumers to book with a travel agency registered with the Travel Industry Council of Ontario (TICO), as part of  a consumer awareness-themed February, asking consumers to “Protect Your Travel Investment”. Nearly 70 per cent of Canadians plan to take an out-of-town trip of one or more nights sometime this year; Ontarians spent $25.2 billion on tourism in 2007 (excluding business travel).
