The Fort Frances Chamber of Commerce is expanding its board of directors

The chamber recently voted to add another three seats to its board. President Cathy Emes says two will be for representatives from the Sunset Country Metis Association and outlying first nations.

"Couchiching already has an appointed seat," says Emes, "but we wanted to open it up to other first nation communities so we can all work together to improve and maintain the quality of life that we have in this area."

The third ensures a spot at the table for the Rainy River Future Development Corporation
