Lodge owners, City Representatives and Tourism Officials piled into the Super 8 on Wednesday to discuss the future of Sunset Country.

Ontario's Ministry of Tourism plans to create a super tourist region for Northern Ontario that would encompass Sault Ste. Marie to the Manitoba border.

Sunset Country Travel Association Executive Director Gerry Cariou says its about time the Ministry understands that people don't like their proposal.

Cariou adds they would like the Ministry to continue with its 11 proposed regions, but leave Sunset Country as its own seperate region.
