Joanne Labadie said that The Pontiac snowmobile association reacted strongly to this via their Facebook page

Although the Pontiac snowmobile association refused the request for an interview with CHIP 101.9, they did, however, issue their position on the municipal meeting via social media stating that the association will continue to work with the NCC, the Quebec Ministry of Transportation and the Quebec Federation of Snowmobile Clubs on the project to relocate the Curley Lake Trail. The members of the Association wish to have the collaboration of the municipal council, in order to preserve snowmobiling and the tourism associated with the practice in the region to support the regional economy.
