Far North Act Stays


The Far North Act isn't going anywhere.

MPP's have voted in support of keeping the controversial Legislation.

PC Critic Norm Miller says the bill has turned northern Ontario into a virtual museum by banning forestry and mining opportunities.

Kenora-Rainy River MPP Sarah Campbell voted to keep the Act, acknowledging the Act is flawed, but scrapping it would delay development in the North.
