Tourism Centre Closures Discussed


Two northwestern Ontario M.P.P.'s say they will be meeting with the Tourism Minister Michael Chan today about the closures of three tourist information centers in northwestern Ontario.


Both Natural Resource Minister Michael Gravel and Bill Mauro say they're sympathetic, but aren't promising the government will overturn the decision to close three tourist information centers in northwestern Ontario.


Gravelle says he is committed to working with the local communities for a solution.

The closure of the tourism centres was among topics that dominated the Northwestern Ontario Municipal Association's conference in Kenora last week.
