Ontario remains committed to the twinning of Hwy. 17 from the Ontario-Manitoba border easterly to Kenora and will continue to move forward with the first 15-km project (Manitoba to Rush Bay Road, Stages 1 and 2).

Ontario has several steps to complete the delivery of this project including obtaining environmental clearances. In addition, the ministry has to work with First Nation communities, the Metis Nation of Ontario (MNO), property owners and municipalities to identify and attempt to mitigate any potential adverse impacts that may arise as a result of the project.

The ministry is committed to building constructive, co-operative relationships with First Nation and Metis peoples in Ontario, and honouring its duty to consult with First Nations and MNO where proposed MTO activities might adversely affect their rights or interests. Discussions are ongoing and continue towards the common goal of seeing the first 15-km project constructed.
