More on Couchiching Toll Booth

The federal government is responding to Couchiching First Nations plans to set up a toll booth later this month.

Michelle Yao, a spokesperson for Indian Affairs Minister Chuck Strahl says the government is committed to working with the band and the province in resolving the issues.

But Yao says an open dialogue is much more constructive and effective in dealing with the band's concerns.

The band council held a community meeting this week to update residents on their plans for the May 21st toll.
