NetNewsLedger reports from the northern Ontario, Canada town of Attawakispat on James Bay, the manufactured homes that were brought over the winter ice road have been sited during the summer. A disagreement between Minister of Aboriginal Affairs John Duncan and the Attawakispat First Nation leaders over funding management has led to a continuing problem in replacing 50 donated, aging ATCO construction camp trailers. MHProNews has learned an application to help finance the construction of 30 homes in Attawakispat has been sidetracked because Minister Duncan has refused to approve an agreement between the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation.
