CP track blockade at Longlac Reginald Belair, Member of Parliament for Cochrane- Superior, is very pleased with the peaceful dismantling of the CN track blockade at Longlac. The Long Lake #58 Band first erected the blockade on Monday, August 13, 1990. As a result of a Court Injunction, the blockade was taken down Sunday, August 19, 1990. The blockade last week pre- vented hundreds of Railworkers from going to work. Thousands of dollars were lost because com- panies were unable to transport their products as well as receiving essential materials required for normal operations. "This protest was the result of many years of frustration experi- enced by the Long Lake #58 Band. In January, 1986, the Band filed a land claim which the Department of Indian Affairs has not yet addressed. The present problem is a direct result of the Indian Affairs Department's archaic methods of negotiation and regulation which no longer apply to current problems", Belair said. The land claim of 1986 stipu- lates that the one square mile allowed them by the Federal Government (1/3 is swamp land) is inadequate. The Band is CROSSWORD the speed limit on Highway 11 to permit safe access to Longlac. In recent years, over a dozen people have been killed on this stretch of highway. The area along the highway should be well illumi- nated and should have clearly vis- ible road signs. An exit lane should be constructed to permit visible road signs. An exit lane should be constructed to permit access to the community. The Band rejects Provincial Government regulations that limit hunting and fishing which, for centuries, have been a First ACROSS 1, Nonalco- 4. Cardinal 25.
