Speaking out against the proposed border fee to enter the United States
Kenora Rainy River MPP Sarah Campbell says both countries will benefit if the fee does not pass.
Campbell adds that a more open border concept will help keep tourists from the United States coming into the region and in turn impact the economy.
At the same time, the MP for Kenora says he is working to advance our borders with the United States.
Greg Rickford says we have advanced border crossings and the purposed border fee to enter the United States goes against what Canada is trying to do.
The purposed fee is going into a feasibility study to see if it would work and help the US pay for security costs.
Neither Campbell or Rickford expect the proposal to pass.
