from the past.....
Bruce Achneepineskum, chief of Marten Falls First Nation, which is south of the Ring of Fire but was not part of the road study, said his community is working with investors on a separate study focused on a north-south road to the Ring of Fire that would also connect his fly-in First Nation to the south.
Mr. Achneepineskum said he believes the benefits of an all-weather road are clear, given that it costs about 52 cents a pound to transport goods into the community.
