FWFN Looks For City Help


The Fort William First Nation is looking for the City's help to preserve their heritage.  The community wants to create a facility that will house historical artifacts and research about their traditional lands.  Walter Bannon says he wants the City's help in developing a business plan for the project.  Bannon is asking for  40-thousand dollars towards a feasibility study.  He says total funding will involve a number of stakeholders including both levels of government for funding. City staff will come back at a later date with more information about the project and whether it's feasible.
