Minister of Natural Resources promoting Far North Act


Minister of Natural Resources Linda Jeffrey has been using her summer to tour area first nations.


Many people have said that there hasn't been enough consultation with aboriginals on the far north act.

Kenora Rainy River M.P.P. Howard Hampton says proper consultation needs to take place throughout the entire implementation process.

Meanwhile, Minister Linda Jeffrey says its often hard to accomodate everyone in such a short period of time.

The bill will come back for a second reading in the legislature in the second week of September.
