Members from an Ontario First Nation continue to block access to a dam reconstruction site because they say they were not properly consulted by Parks Canada.
Nodin Webb, leader and spokesperson for Kawartha Nishnawbe First Nation, said his community isn t necessarily opposed to the work on the Burleigh Falls Dam, but Parks Canada should ve involved them in the decision-making process.
Two barricades were erected last week that prevent access to the work site in Burleigh Falls, Ont., 130 kilometres northeast of Toronto.
