A 107 km all-season gravel road between Webequie First Nation's airport and the McFaulds Lake area of Ontario's Ring of Fire, proposed by Webequie First Nation. Ottawa approved it after a federal impact assessment on 25 June 2026, setting binding conditions, and Ontario and Webequie marked the start of construction the same day. Friends of the Attawapiskat River filed for judicial review of the federal approval in Federal Court on 23 July 2026.
