FONOMFONOM President Al Spacek says electing Justin Trudeau and the Liberals as the next federal government is great news for northern Ontario.

The President of the Federation of Northern Ontario Municipalities says, Trudeau has a clear and solid mandate and they are looking forward to that being rolled out.

He adds the relationship between the feds and the province should be strengthened.
