The President of the Northwestern Ontario Municipal Association is throwing cold water on a proposal to amalgamate Health Units in the districts of Kenora-Rainy River and Thunder Bay.
Wendy Landry says the merger talk is being done without consultations with municipalities, health officials and the public.
Landry is asking the government to abandon the panel recommendations.
She stresses that the size of the land mass would be far too cumbersome to properly manage all of northwestern Ontario.
Landry says she will be raising possible merger concerns when she meets with Premier Kathleen Wynne at the Ontario Good Roads Conference this week in Toronto.
