The Nuclear Waste Management Organization has chosen Wabigoon Lake Ojibway Nation and the Township of Ignace for its nuclear waste site.
Bruce County narrowly voted in October in favour of hosting the site which would have been close to the Bruce County nuclear electricity-generating plant.
Both the Wabigoon Lake Objibway Nation and Ignace also voted in favour of hosting the site which will be deep into bedrock.
The cost of the waste project is estimated at $25 billion.
