Tourism Group Questions FEDNOR Announcement

A regional tourism marketing group is questioning the reasoning behind the federal government funding development of a tourism app by the Dryden Development Corporation.

Gerry Cariou of Sunset Country Travel Association says it's only competes with and duplicates a project they're working on funded by the private sector.

Cariou adds their app will cost a fifth of the $160-thousand dollars handed out by FEDNOR to the Dryden agency.
