Supporting the North

The province is supporting the economy of Northern Ontario by:

 Addressing the delays blocking the Ring of Fire to ensure sustainable development in the region.

 Encouraging the development of natural resources in Northern and Indigenous communities by sharing the benefits of resource development from mining, forestry and aggregates.

 Reviewing land use planning in the Far North Act, 2010 to encourage economic growth, job creation and self-reliance in the region.

 Improving the safety and reliability of the Trans-Canada Highway to promote economic development and keep people moving, and reviewing other ways to meet Northerners’ transportation needs, including passenger rail and bus services.

 Enabling private-sector participation in the expansion of natural gas to help provide gas connections to over 70 communities and 33,000 households.  Investing in broadband infrastructure to expand access to reliable, fast and affordable internet connectivity, so that communities and businesses can fully participate and compete in the digital economy.

 Establishing a special mining working group that will focus on speeding up regulatory approvals and attracting major new investments.
