Newly-released documents show Ontario politicians got tickets to some hot shows and received exotic gifts and other freebies last year.
Ontario law requires all gifts worth more than $200 be reported.
They included a pewter rooster given to Premier Dalton McGuinty by Quebec Premier Jean Charest.
McGuinty also received an Aboriginal rock sculpture from the Police Association of Ontario and a tea set and several other gifts from China.
