Sachigo Lake Airport
Sachigo Lake Airport, (IATA: ZPB, ICAO: CZPB), is located 1.5 nautical miles (2.8 km; 1.7 mi) north of the First Nations community of Sachigo Lake, Ontario, Canada. Because Sachigo Lake First Nation is a "dry" community that forbids alcohol, each arriving passenger has their luggage searched in a separate arrivals building to make sure they are not bringing any contraband in with them.

gollark: Scarier possibility: what if the people voting for them DO care, a lot, and genuinely think that the people they vote for have better policy or something?
