The Retired Teachers of Ontario are lobbying both levels
of government for greatly needed upgrades to Highway 17.
Spokesperson Cliff Hueber says the TransCanada highway
needs to be divided into 4 lanes between Kenora and
Winnipeg.
Hueber adds a twinned highway is also needed from
Nippigon to Thunder Bay.

their highway plan seriously.
