Residents of Grassy Narrows say they have once again barred MNR officials shutting down road repair work in their community.Enforcement officers were at the site of a blockade to check out work being carried out on the Slant Lake Road.
The blockade members says the MNR has threatened to shut down the work because they don't
have the necessary environmental permits.
This week, band members say they denied the enforcement officers access to Slant Lake and
repair work continued on uninterupted.Repairs have not been made to the road since 2002, when Grassy set up the blockade to
protest clear-cutting operations near their community.
