Mayor Seeks Meeting with Tourism Minister


The mayor of Fort Frances is seeking a meeting with Ontario's Tourism Minister to talk about the pending closure of the region's tourist information centres.

Roy Avis understands the government's need to save money, but wants to explore options to keep the centres  open.

A resolution calling for the centers in Fort Frances, Kenora and Rainy River to remain open will also be discussed at the upcoming meeting of area Mayors in Kenora.
