NOMA Pleased With Provincial Decision

A victory for northern Municipalities.
Dave Canfield is the Vice-President of the Northwestern Ontario Municipal Association and he says lobbying efforts asking the government to not make changes to the Endangered Species Act have paid off.
Canfield says the appeal period ended on February 25th.
He says the changes would have added more red tape and have a negative impact on the surging forest industry.
This despite a furious attack by environmental groups.
Canfield says the province is using some common sense and letting the forest industry rebound continue.
