Iqaluit bridge for pedestrians only, environment minister says

CBC News, June 12

A proposed bridge across the Sylvia Grinnell River near Iqaluit will be for pedestrians only, Nunavut Environment Minister Daniel Shewchuk says.

Shewchuk's announcement, made in the territorial legislature on Thursday, ends a long dispute over whether the bridge should accommodate all-terrain vehicles and snowmobiles as well as pedestrians.
