Algoma-Manitoulin MPP Michael Mantha rose in the Ontario Legislature today to highlight the poor quality of winter road maintenance in northern Ontario as he read a number of recent news headlines from the region, all of which were in relation to area fatal highway collisions.

"It just isn't working," he said of the winter road maintenance program."Highway 101, 144, 17, 129 are all under winter road maintenance concerns. And just this morning in McKerrow, another death. Enough is enough!"
