Highway 11 communities, Timmins, Iroquois Falls, Manitoulin and North Bay all recipients of the province’s largesse
With the prospect of an early provincial election looming large, Northern Ontario Heritage Fund (NOHFC) worked overtime in making a spate of announcements in the last week.
More than $16.8 million has been dispensed in recent days to fulfill the infrastructure to-do lists for many municipalities and Indigenous communities, to give tourism and cultural events a boost, and to broaden the footprint and outfit of a number of successful businesses.
A number of Far North and Highway 11 communities and businesses landed a $2,544,579 bundle from the province, as announced on Nov. 20.
