Squabbling over who will get to build a school in a remote northern Ontario community has lead to the cancellation of that project, say government officials.

The Nibinamik First Nation, or Summer Beaver Band, has prohibited the lowest bidder on the $5.3 million project, Goodfellow Construction, to work in the community.
