@AMOPolicy fantastic conference in Ottawa this past week. Great to see municipal colleagues and Ontario cabinet minister @GregRickford Thanks for all of your hard work @fordnation@NorthON@NOHFC
The loss of inter-community bus service is devastating for rural and remote communities. We need national action + partnerships to ensure critical transportation links for smaller #CDNmuni, local businesses + our national economy. https://t.co/nt3QJRRZ9h
It was an honour to bear witness and take part in such a genuine dialogue. As Chief Clifford Bull said today, we’re better when we all paddle in the same direction together.
Day 3! Fortunate to have experienced the warm hospitality, stunning natural beauty, and strong spirit that defines northwestern Ontario. My thanks to Mayor Fred Mota and the wonderful people of Red Lake for giving our province a great example of what community means.
Mining has been a significant part of the Red Lake story for generations and an engine for the regional economy. Pleased to spend the morning with the skilled workers at Evolution Mining and learn about cutting-edge technology & sustainability practices they are bringing forward.
HAPPENING AGAIN , Having no access to emergency room services at our hospital in Red Lake Ontario for a full 12 hours starting July 7th is NOT acceptable. A one way Ambulance to the next closest ER is 220km. Again NOT acceptable !! @ONThealth@redlakeontario@SylviaJonesMPP
Thank you @IntactPE for your financial support for a fire break project! This project will help protect the community, residents and infrastructure from the threat of wildfire to our community. Map of firebreak: https://t.co/Nzn2LpPd4h
This morning, I met with Mayor @FredMota4 & members of @TheKDSB. We spoke about the work we’re doing to help communities in Northwestern Ontario prepare for flooding and fires, and our progress bolstering emergency response efforts. Thank you for your partnership.
Evolution Mining’s generosity is amazing. This is the brand new fire truck being presented to Chief Scarrow and @redlakeontario Mayor and council. Community support at its finest.
We can send a man to the moon but can’t figure out how to have continued and stable road access for our residents in Red Lake, Ontario for essential supplies and medical appointments due to road washouts. @ONtransport What’s wrong with this picture ? @redlakeontario@noma_nwo
Thank you to all those who’ve been working non-stop since Saturday to reopen Hwy 105! Just one of the challenges of living in a remote community with only one road in and out. #RedLakeResilience
Today is #InternationalFirefightersDay2022 We are extremely grateful to our volunteer firefighters who will drop everything in a moments notice to respond to emergencies in our community!
Thank you for all you do! #IFFD
Statement by MPP Michael Gravelle
Thunder Bay - After a great deal of reflection, and many discussions with my doctors, family, friends and staff, I have come to the conclusion that I will not be able to run a Liberal candidate in the upcoming provincial election. 1/7
On behalf of @redlakeontario I would like to welcome home our boy @Rad85E Eric Radford and Vanessa James @TeamCanada to perform in our figure skating carnival. The arena was packed to cheer on both Olympian’s. Best wishes on your future endeavours. #WinterOlympics#FigureSkating
