The Kenora District Municipal Association is holding its annual general meeting this weekend in Ear Falls.
Deputy Mayor Tracey Simon says they were looking forward to the Minister of Natural Resources visiting, but notes that's changed.
Other guest speakers include Kenora MP Greg Rickford, Kenora Rainy River MPP Howard Hampton, and representatives from the Ministry of Northern Development and Mines.
KDMA officially gets underway with a meet and greet tonight and runs until Saturday.
