Municipal, FN leaders meet again

Representatives from area First Nations and municipalities gathered for a second local government networking session on Wednesday at the Devlin Hall.
Looking to work together for the betterment of the whole district, the event ran from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. and was facilitated by former Thunder Bay-Rainy River MP Ken Boshcoff.

The meeting was co-ordinated by the Fort Frances Chiefs’ Secretariat and hosted by the Rainy River District Municipal Association.
It was a follow-up to one held Oct. 16 at the Kay-Nah-Chi-Wah-Nung Historical Centre near Stratton.
That meeting—attended by 34 different reps—was hailed as successful by those involved.
