Wynne did not have a dollar figure for the construction of the road, saying it will be part of the province’s $1 billion investment toward infrastructure for the Ring of Fire.

“You will know that this is geography that is not straightforward in terms of building a road, which will be many bridges and causeways because of the amount of water,” Wynne said. “It will be a couple of years at least, but we want to get moving as quickly as we can.”

First Nations have put forward a proposal and suggested a willingness to take ownership of the road. Wynne said the government will continue to work with them moving forward.

“There are lots of questions that remain to be answered, but what’s important is we have an agreement that this must go forward and we have a partnership that will allow us to answer those questions as we do the planning,” she said.
