Mayhem on Highway 11

The title this weeks sound like the title of a Quentin Tarantino movie. Nope. It's real life...and death in Northern Ontario.  Let this sink in. The Highway Traffic fatality rate across the province of Ontario in 2021 was 3.94 per 100,000 people, yet the fatality rate in northern Ontario that same year was more than 99.25 per 100,000 people. That's a 135% increase! So far, the Ontario government seems to be okay with that. Jim Park talks to Ontario MPP John Vanthof who represents that Ontario region. Listen as Mr. Vanthof explains to problems…and the proposed solutions.  Are you listening, Premier Ford?
