One Rainy River district community is saying "no" to Fort Frances' request for financial support for its airport.
Atikokan Mayor Dennis Brown says the request doesn't make much sense for his community which has its own airport.
"I think it's a no brainer," says Brown. "We couldn't be expected to pay for the one in Fort Frances when we have our own. We've been limping along with our own airport."
Brown adds the town also recently spent almost over million dollars upgrading the airport runway and taken steps to reduce operating costs.
