The City of Kenora is talking legal action to get the provincial government to help pay for much needed repairs to a couple of local bridges. The price tag to fix up the Keewatin Channel and the Winnipeg River West Branch Bridges is going to be at least six million dollars.
Kenora mayor Dave Canfield says a lawsuit is one way of forcing the government's hand.
The bridges were downloaded onto the municipality 14 years ago, and Canfield suggests some of the problems predate the transfer.
He plans to bring the issue up as his number one priority at the Association of Municipalities of Ontario convention in London later this month.
