Rickford On Red Lake Airport

The Federal Government is investing in another airport in Northwestern Ontario.  The announcement was made earlier this week by Kenora MP Greg Rickford, that the Red Lake airport will receive over 32 thousand dollars in funding for the purchase of an electronic runway condition reporting system.  Rickford adds that it will be beneficial for the region.  This funding is in addition to the over 261 thousand dollars announced earlier this year to replace a snowplow truck and sand spreader and for cabling for lighting systems.
