Greyhound Bus Service Up in the Air

The fate of Greyhound service in Northwestern Ontario remains up in the air.

The Ontario Highway Transport Board's 90 day deadline ended at midnight, allowing Greyhound to withdraw from the region if it desires.

But Kenora-Rainy River MPP Howard Hampton feels confident bus service will be available to some communities along Highway 17.

However, Hampton says the McGuinty Government hasn't stated if they are in talks with the provider to continue service elsewhere in the northwest.
