Government Slammed Over MNR Cuts

 The opposition is slamming the province over recent layoffs at Ministry of Natural Resources offices across northwestern Ontario.

The union representing workers puts the number at 102, including two at the Fort Frances office.

Kenora-Rrainy River MPP Sarah Campbell says there's confusion about the numbers coming from the Natural Resources Minister who claims there will actually be an increase in jobs.

Campbell wants government to reveal its long-term vision for the MNR.
