A number of Northwestern Ontario First Nation communities are banning together to work towards improving infrastructure. The group of 5 First Nation communities signed the agreement that will help in the development of an East-West Corridor in the Ring of Fire. The communities want to work together to capitalize economic benefits from the mining industry. Officials say the ultimate goal of the agreement will be to develop an infrastructure, transportation and service corridor for the Ring of Fire. Chief Harry Papah says ownership of this corridor would give his people new opportunities for training jobs and business.
