It is a time of transition at the Wahta First Nation.
After closing the 68 acre cranberry marsh in 2017, the community has turned to a new revenue generator.
Large digital billboards have been installed along Highway 400 through the Wahta Mohawk Territory.
“Highway 400 runs through the middle of the reserve, it cuts it in two. This is a way we can get something back from that,” said Lance DeCaire, economic development officer.
The signs will be placed on a ten kilometer stretch of the highway and are expected to make hundreds of thousands of dollar annually.
