Dozens of protesters have blocked the main road demanding a search of a different landfill north of Winnipeg
The blockade began last week after Manitoba Premier Heather Stefanson said the province would not support a search of the other landfill, pointing to a study that said it could cost $184 million, pose safety risks and not have guaranteed success.
Mayor Scott Gillingham has said he hopes for dialogue with the protesters but the City of Winnipeg must make sure that garbage continues to be collected and there is access through the road.
