Moose FM CKNR 94.1 - Elliot Lake

 Nipissing MPP Vic Fedeli says the Liberals still won't come clean over the sale of Ontario Northland.   When the Liberals announced the sale last year they said it would save Ontario taxpayers $265-million.    But Fedeli says the government's own Ministry of Finance has produced documents showing the sell-off will actually cost $790-million.   Despite this huge cost difference, Fedeli says he can't get Premier Kathleen Wynne to cancel the sale.

Mississagi Provincial Park, north of Elliot Lake, is now headed in a new direction.  The park is now open for business but it’s being staffed and operated by the city instead of the province.  Last year the Liberal government announced several park closures in Northern Ontario because of low usage.  However the province later opted for a one year pilot project where Elliot Lake takes over the park.  The goal is to increase the number of visitors and revenue.  However if there's a loss, the city and not the province, takes the hit.
