Ontario is set to begin building the road to the Ring of Fire.
Indigenous Affairs Minister Greg Rickford says the province is investing nearly $62 million in Geraldton, Ont., to rebuild several segments of existing road that will serve as the start of the eventual road to the mineral-rich region.
Ontario Premier Doug Ford and Prime Minister Mark Carney both want to mine the region as part of the country's response to the ongoing trade war with the United States.
