Warning Issued by Couchiching FN

Couchiching First Nation says motorists could be fined for trespassing if they don’t pay the Highway 11 toll.
In a news release, the Band says it’s not impeding motorists who are unwilling to pay, but Chief and Council support the application of a section of the Indian Act in which a person found guilty of trespassing on reserve land can face a fine of up to $50.
The band says a majority of motorists crossing the toll have been courteous, but admit they have faced several others who have refused to pay.
