Last week, Elliot Lake council unanimously endorsed a motion to SRFN council requesting a plan for a closer and equal working relationship between the neighbouring municipalities.
The two sides will come together at the Miner’s Monument at noon on Thursday to raise the First Nation flag as a first step in the new relationship.
