Hydro Concerns Presented To Minister


Fort Frances town council has taken its concerns about the province's review of the electricity distribution system directly to Energy Minister.

A delegation met with Chris Bentley last week.

Mayor Roy Avis says local power users could be impacted if the Fort Frances Power Corporation is forced to merge with another.

Avis says they were also encouraged about a meeting with Natural Resources Minister Michael Gravelle regarding changes to the bear-wise program.
