Opaskwayak Cree Nation Chief Christian Sinclair spoke to Arctic Radio to give an update on what has been going on in the community.

Sinclair stated that a contractors meeting was held recently and a paving contract in partnership with S & J Construction out of Winnipeg was approved and all the un paved roads in the community will be paved and roads in need of repair will be fixed.

This contract is worth about 6.7 million dollars and the work will start as early as next week.

Sinclair would also like to thank the staff and management for keeping the community safe during the pandemic.
