The Ontario government has signed an agreement with Aroland First Nation to drive economic growth and build and upgrade infrastructure in Northern Ontario
This agreement includes support for upgrades to Anaconda and Painter Lake Roads, which are important connections on the road to the Ring of Fire, as well as major new investments in infrastructure and energy transmission in the region.
It also builds upon agreements that are in place with other First Nations partners along the entire proposed length of the roads to the Ring of Fire and helps set the stage for further potential partnerships.
Aroland First Nation is located at the Gateway to the Ring of Fire, 60 kilometres north of Geraldton on Highway 584/643.
