On July 24, 2009 at approximately 1:00 pm, Fort Frances OPP officers were dispatched to a motorcycle collision involving a deer. The collision occurred on Mill Road just east of the Fort Frances overpass, when a male driver of a motorcycle was struck by a deer running onto the roadway. The male driver, a resident of Fort Frances, suffered non-life threatening injuries and was transported to LaVerendrye Hospital by ambulance.

Letter to the editor,
I was just wondering....is all that Rainy River has to offer is birdwatching?
I noticed the new signs last week, and read this weeks article in the Record.

I began volunteering at the Bass Championship by directing traffic in the morning and talking to anglers. They are the most optimistic group in the world. Every day they look forward to fishing and at the end of the fishing day, they look forward to sharing their stories with each other.
Some of the stories might be embellished-but after last week; I can now believe more of them.
