Contest seeks Wiarton Willie understudy

A contest to find an understudy for Wiarton Willie has prompted a bit of a debate on the Wiarton Willie Festival Facebook Page.

The Town of South Bruce Peninsula has put out a Wanted Alive poster in search of a new Albino groundhog to be ready to step in for the current Willie.

The town is offering a $1,000 reward for anyone with information on an Albino Groundhog.

One person responded to the ad on Facebook with the comment "free Willie".
