Focus North Forum comes to end
Canada's Northern Development Ministers are leaving Thunder Bay with a better sense of how they can help the north. Ontario's Minister of Northern Development Michael Gravelle says they're going to tackle the north's infrastructure deficit. Gravelle says many communities have a hard time coming up with their share of funding for infrastructure projects. Each provincial minister had the opportunity to speak with Federal Aboriginal Affairs Minister John Duncan earlier in the day. Gravelle used his time with the Minister to discuss the Northern Growth Plan.
