The City of North Bay has cut itself off from shooting winter-themed movies.
It’s the result of a specialty foam movie crews use during warm weather to simulate winter scenes on city streets.
City Hall has sent a letter to producers saying Phos-Chek is prohibited in the community.
The decision means crews would have to scout other locations for winter scenes.
However a group plans to fight the prohibition and claims North Bay is the only Ontario city that has a ban on the foam.
