6-Oct-05. Ring road deal isn’t imminent. Calgary Herald, B1.

The Tsuu T’ina First Nation was granted approval Tuesday by the Alberta Gaming and Liquor Commission to proceed with work on its proposed 70,000-square-foot casino at Glenmore Trail and 37th Street S.W. The City of Calgary does not want to see construction begin on the project until a deal is reached between the province and the band to build a connector road that is seen as a key component of the Calgary transportation system. The Province stressed that there is no connection between the casino licencing process and talks on the road.
