Illegal Camp

Eight men have been fined for setting up an illegal camp north of Kenora.

The men were charged last September after M-N-R conservation officers were tipped off about the camp just off the Werner Lake Road.

Officers discovered a large metal structure and a shed that had been set up for at least 10 years.

Along with the fines, the seven men from Winnipeg and one from Calgary have been ordered to remove the campsite before June.
