"I'm just so frustrated by the lack of leadership on the Ring of Fire," said NDP MP Charlie Angus. "This study was going to be the one that was going to give us the road map forward, literally. Now it's just going to be kicked down the road for more delay, more study and more excuses." The study was led by the First Nations and its up to them to release it to the public, he added. The study says the combined savings of an all-weather road would amount to $5.2 million annually.
