OPP had a very quiet night in the Sault district. In fact, it was quiet everywhere in Northern Ontario except for one snowmobile accident close to Burke's Falls near North Bay. Three men were riding the machine when it struck a utility pole. One rider, Adam Dubeau, age 22, of Hamilton was taken to hospital with serious injuries.

The OPP advise their RIDE crews will be out everywhere in Northern Ontario. Let a sober person drive and save yourself a lot of grief, expense and perhaps, injury. It's the smart thing to do!
