North American Super Corridor - NDP Resolution Passed




John, Paul Miller's office has forwarded your ideas to me on this issue.  Recently, at a combined federal/provincial NDP riding association meeting for Timmins-James Bay, we passed a resolution to work towards such a plan.  I will be discussing this further with Paul.
