Human remains found just west of Vermilion Bay, April 16, have been revealed to be a man who went missing from a British Columbia psychiatric facility, nearly seven years ago.

Despite ghoulish rumours circulating the community about the circumstances under which 55 year-old Donald Bonner of Port Coquitlam, B.C. was found, the local detachment says no foul play is suspected. OPP representatives would not address questions on the circumstances surrounding Bonner’s death saying it remains under investigation.

Coquitlam RCMP have confirmed with the Dryden Observer that the deceased is the same man who was listed on a Canada-wide warrant for being unlawfully at large since 2008.

On June 9 2008, Bonner signed out of Coast Cottages on the Riverview Hospital grounds on a leave pass and was not seen again, despite an extensive search investigation. Bonner was considered a violent individual and his warrant specified

Dryden looking for a role in regional distribution initiative

By Michael Christianson Mayor Craig Nuttall met with mayors and First Nation representatives from 19 different communities on Friday for a gathering in Sioux Lookout.

The gathering’s purpose stated ‘The basic principle of good governance is good relationships. This gathering will provide a forum to continue to build stronger relationships through direct communications amongst leaders. Our goal is to improve the social and economic well-being of our entire region.’

One project mentioned on the agenda is the Regional Distribution Centre, which is being explored for feasibility by the Community Economic Development Initiative. The RDC would serve as a central distribution point for fresh foods and consumer goods across the region. The objective is to source direct from manufacturers or importers to allow for competitive pricing, better ‘use by’ dates, and shorter delivery times. The RDC would operate as a non-profit social enterprise.

Mayor Nuttall said another meeting is slated in six months time and encourages all mayors to attend and meet the other leaders in the region.

“The projects that are happening now, if you look at Northern Iron and you look at Treasury Metals, they all have to involve First Nations, they’ve got to get to the table and they have to talk so this really broke the ice,” said Nuttall. “It’s going to open up doors for the first nations from the north. How we can benefit them with the powerlines and all season roads because we’re going to benefit, Red Lake will benefit, Pickle Lake will benefit, we’ll all benefit from this. I think by talking to them it opens the door for us rather than they’re isolated.”

The mayor went on to say that meetings like this help the region become stronger through natural dialogues.

“This is I think what we accomplished,” said Nuttall “Understand where they’re coming from and they understand where we are coming from. I think it was a great meeting, by working

that members of the public should not attempt to apprehend him.

His remains were located by a Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) fire crew who in turn contacted the OPP earlier this month.

The investigation involved the assistance of the OPP North West Region Forensic Identification Unit and OPP Crime Unit personnel under the direction of Detective Inspector Peter Loree of the OPP Criminal Investigation Branch (CIB).

A post mortem examination was conducted in Toronto.

Union approves mill and woodlands deals

By Dryden Observer Staff

Fire season returns MNR Fire Rangers disembark from a sleek EC 130 helicopter while participating in hover exit training on April 29 at the Dryden Fire Centre. MNR personnel have been busy battling early season blazes across the north in recent weeks.

Dry grass/brush a concern early in the fire season Submitted

Region. On May 2 there was one fire each in the districts of Kenora, Red Lake, Sioux Lookout and Thunder Bay and on May 3 there were three fires in the Kenora District and one in the Thunder Bay District. The forest fire hazard is moderate to high across the region.

There were no new forest fires confirmed in the Northwest Region by the early afternoon of May 4.

The three remaining active fires are located in the Kenora District. It was a busy weekend with a total of eight new fires across the Northwest

Every year, residents burning grass or debris ignite wildfires. In the spring, cured grass dries quickly, ignites easily and can spread out of control quickly. Before burning, consider that if your fire escapes, you could be held responsible for all the costs of suppressing the escaped

fire.

The MNR would like to remind the public that no burning is allowed during the day from April 1 to October 31. Residents in organized municipalities must check with their local municipal office for other burning restrictions or bylaws.

More than 550 Unifor members in the Dryden-based Domtar Pulp Mill and Woodlands operations voted overwhelmingly in favour of new four year deals which will see two per cent annual wage increases.

Maintenance, production and office employees in the pulp mill voted 97 per cent in favour of the new deal with harvesting, trucking and chipping employees in the woodlands operations voting in favour by an 80 per cent margin. “We’re proud that these agreements meet all elements of Unifor’s

Eastern Canada Pulp and Paper Pattern,� said Jerry Dias, National President of Unifor. “We are pleased that Unifor’s Dryden mill and woodlands members not only resisted all concession demands once again, but they also achieved key improvements, including enhanced wages, benefits and contract language,� said Stephen Boon, Unifor National Representative.

Top woodlands pay will increase to $36/hour with top pulp mill pay reaching about $41/hour by the final year of the deals.

Key Terms of New Domtar Mill and Woodlands Deals - Four year term (September 1, 2014 to August 31, 2018) - 2 per cent annual wage increases - $1000 signing bonus - 75 cent per hour pay increase for trades - improved dental and health benefits, $40 increase in boot allowance, $90 increase in vision coverage - new 3 cent per hour employer paid education leave - 9.3 per cent increase in employer woodlands pension

contributions along with 25 per cent increase in retirement bridging - increased woodlands commuting pay with an additional $1000 pay per year for drivers - new paid benefits option for spare employees in woodlands - new woodlands overtime banking option providing up 40 hours of additional paid time off per year - expanded seniority and job posting rights for all woodlands operations

Archibald raising funds for treatment Local Ataxia sufferer says stem cell therapies restore quality of life

By Chris Marchand If there’s one thing Dawn Archibald has learned to hold dear, it is her privacy. In order to get the treatment she needs, she cringes at the very idea of drawing attention to herself.

Suffering from the debilitating genetic neurological disorder Ataxia, the 40 year-old Dryden resident has given up a lot with a severe lack of mobility, muscle weakness, poor balance and a range of other symptoms in her battle with a progressive and incurable disease.

What relief that is available to her exists outside the Canadian medical system at great cost in the emerging field of stem cell therapy.

“I would, of course love to get it done in North America, but it’s not regulated for Ataxia yet,” said Archibald. “If you have Cancer,

Leukemia, or blood disorders you can get stem cell treatment, but my illness is so rare it’s not in the public light.”

That pushes Ataxia sufferers like Archibald to seek costly treatments in overseas clinics where she says she’s found relief from her symptoms before.

Archibald says a trip to Nanjing, China two years ago restored much of her quality of life.

“The stem cells last in your body for two years,” she said. “What I noticed was an increase in energy, my balance was restored, I was free of the muscle and joint pain I have. Unfortunately these treatments don’t last forever.”

With the help of some dedicated friends and neighbours, Archibald is trying to raise $34,000 to attend Bangkok, Thailand’s Better a Being

Hospital for a stem cell treatment in July.

The campaign is rolling out online, through her ‘gofundme’ page at w w w. g o f u n d m e . c o m / D a w n Archibald. As of early this week the campaign had raised just over $3,200.

Friends are staging a fundraising barbeque at M&M Meat Shops on June 20, a social at the Patricia Inn in July and an online silent auction in the fall.

“We’re just doing everything we can,” said Archibald’s neighbour and friend Tammy Whelen. “The expectation isn’t huge but the response we’ve gotten so far has been incredible.

We’re going to keep building on that.”

tion. My prediction is we will not hear much about it till after this year’s election – no party will want to put forward any ideas before then as the other parties will seize on them, distort them, destroy them, and no useful purpose will have been served. Think Tim Hudak’s proposed economic package, a small part of which was a hiring freeze; this hiring freeze part was blown out of proportion to be a wholesale layoff of whole departments, and that cost Hudak the election. Of course the government is now proposing wholesale layoffs of whole departments; such is Canadian politics.

But right after the 2015 Federal election, whoever wins, we can confidently expect lots of announcements, and no doubt one will be for grants to municipalities, clubs, associations, non-profits, ‘NGO’s’, for monumental type construction projects in celebration of the ‘150’. Given the short time frame projects will have to be ‘shovel ready’ to qualify for the

grants.

So, it behooves us all, sports associations, service clubs, cultural entities, chambers of commerce, church or fellowship lodges, above all municipalities, to put our thinking caps on now, come up with some ideas the whole community can get behind. Then have the preliminary work done and plans ‘on the shelf’ so that when the announcements come, and the parameters are clear as to what will get the grants, we can pick a project ‘off the shelf’ and submit.

Just to confirm this notion, Dryden got its Water Treatment Plant back in the 70s; it’s major water-main project in the 80s; Curling rink, Number two arena, swimming pool, seniors center, day care, all of these mostly paid for by senior governments and way more than our share of

the pie. All because we had our ducks lined up, because we were “shovel ready’; we were ‘first hog at the trough’.

So maybe it is timely that somebody, perhaps the city, and/or the Chamber of Commerce, the DDC, the Rotary club, the Masons, a group of interested parties, put together a ‘think tank’ to assess what the community as a whole would like to do for a ‘Centennial 150’ monumental project.

I of course have a hundred ideas (well, OK, maybe a dozen or so) and will put some forward in future columns. My off-thetop favourite would be to Rebuild Van Horne Avenue as our ‘Grande Allee’ - the glorious link from downtown to our someday-to-bedeveloped waterfront.

With all wiring underground, of course, and with a wide pedestrian mall all along it with rest stops and grandstands for parades and events. The monumental part could be high-mast street lighting, the masts being sculptures, say stylized sailboats. Maybe we could throw in the amphitheatre part of the waterfront plan. Makes me

shiver to picture it in my mind.

Or we could submerge the city and other local governments into a new larger local government entity encompassing our whole community; perhaps we could get the fed to pay for the transition costs, also to pay for twinning and finishing the TransCanada highway the whole length of the new local government. We could call it the ‘Canada 150’ highway, and the new broader community could be named ‘Canada 150’. Or you might have a better idea.

If you believe that Dryden is doomed, then there is nothing to be done. But if you believe as I do that Dryden can resume its leadership role in Northwestern Ontario; if you believe as I do that this can once again be the best place to live in the entire world, then you need to get involved, let’s do a Centennial Project.

(Entire world??, you ask.

Then I ask, have you watched Toronto weather on The Weather Channel this winter? Any beheadings happening in your neighbourhood?)

Dark day, darker night pril 30th was "dark day" at A work when the hydro from the grid was cut off to tie in new equipment. Shutdown work was going on using generators for lights and power tools in buildings that have no windows.

April 30th was also Lorne's last day as an active employee so he brought in a box of doughnuts to share with the guys. He showed us his scar where the doctors had opened him up like a fish to repair four aneurisms on his aorta. He seemed delighted to tell us how a person would die in an hour and a half in excruciating pain if an aortic aneurism bursts. Lorne was in my class in school.

After supper on "dark day", a friend who is ten years younger than I am told me about his cancer treatments. Rough stuff.

When I got home, a little before ten, our old cat, Oreo, wasn't around.

I wasn't worried about him, on Tues-

day at 4:30 a.m. he was out in the rain hunting shrews. He had come onto the bed that day, soaking wet, an hour after I had gone to sleep.

When Shelby came in after eleven, I woke up and asked her if Oreo had come in. She went back downstairs to look for him. You can guess what happened next..... an eighteen year old cat died and everybody cried.

I had a hard time getting Oreo from the doggie door down to the basement freezer. His eyes and his mouth were open, he looked like he was attacking something. I was hav-

ing symptoms of a migraine and a panic attack at the same time. I thought I had jinxed him by writing about him two weeks ago. I tried a big shot of whiskey in a large glass of water, which helped a lot. Then, when I went to go back to bed, damned if I didn't have a kidney stone damming things up. I couldn't drive to the hospital so I drank several litres of straight water to flush it out. Four hours later, you can't even see it in the toilet, but you sure know it's out.

Petra, Shelby and I buried Oreo in beautiful warm sunshine at suppertime on Friday. Cecily is going to go to ceramic classes in Brandon to make four cat and four dog markers for our pet cemetery.

High school musical- it was a lot of fun, just what I needed the day after a pet funeral. Ursula was great. I think I have to type: "Disney's Little Mermaid, Junior" to avoid being sued by Disney Corp.

Dimit awarded Governor General Medal of Bravery for 2013 fire rescue

By Michael Christianson Oxdrift volunteer firefighter Shaun Dimit was recognized last week for an act of bravery that took place in 2013.

Dimit received the Medal of Bravery presented by the Governor General of Canada David Johnston on May 1 in a ceremony at Rideau Hall in Ottawa.

On January 26, 2013, Dimit rescued his fatherin-law from his burning house in Oxdrift, Ontario.

Dimit remembers hearing his father-in-law coughing from within the burning house that was filling with thick heavy black smoke.

“I knew better than to go in there but I didn’t have a choice,” said Dimit about entering the house without the proper apparatus.

It took Dimit three attempts to pull his fatherin-law from the old farmhouse. The smoke was so thick it was almost at the floor. Once outside of the house on the cold January night Dimit took him to the truck to escape the elements.

Over two years later in Ottawa, Demit was one of 36 to receive the Medal of Bravery.

“It was an excellent experience and it was an

honour to meet the Governor General himself, shake his hand,” said Demit. “It was really humbling hearing all stories of other people all around the country doing things too not just particularly firefighters or policemen but even civilians.”

Dimit knows that the successful rescue is not something he did completely on his own.

“I’d like to thank my fire department,” said Demit.

“Without the training I’ve had over the last ten years I would have never been able to do it, I would have never survived it. If I would have had the guts to even go in there I would have probably panicked or froze like lots of people.”

St. Joseph’s School Grade 2 French Immersion students are making some great new friends at Patricia Gardens as their class has embarked on an Adopt-A-Senior program.

Over the span of a month the class visits participating residents in the activity room of Patricia Gardens conducting interviews, doing crafts and listening to stories from the older set. “The kids are loving the chance to interact with older folks,� said teacher Patty Wrolstad. “A lot of them are in a generation where their grandparents are in their 50s or 60s. We have one senior who is going to be 100 this summer so it’s quite an experience. They understand that times were different when they were kids.�

Wrolstad notes the older participants seem to thrive off the buzz and participation is strong in the program.

RECYCLE YOUR RIDE IS BACK As knowledge of concussions and head injuries grow, a local elementary school is adopting a new protocol to keep a watchful eye on kids who have bumped their heads.

St. Joseph’s Catholic School and the Northwest Catholic District School Board have brought a three-part system on line to assess, document and monitor suspected head injuries.

If a student receives a blow to the head, face or neck and is suspected to have a concussion, firstaid personnel at the school have new tools like flowcharts to assess whether medical attention should be sought immediately, or if a student could remain in the school setting under observation. Phone calls are made home to inform parents of the incident and forms are completed and sent home detailing symptoms.

School adopts new concussion protocol Kids who have bumped their heads will also wear a sticker throughout the day to indicate to all staff that the child should be monitored closely for symptoms of concussion.

“We’re observing them more closely than we used to,” said Educational Assistant (EA) Sandy Botelho. “By using the stickers there is that communication throughout the whole school. I think there’s more awareness of concussions these days in the media and in sports, so now it’s moving into schools.”

On the frontline of most playground bumps and bruises, EA Kim Downton says it’s important to know what kind of injuries kids are bringing to school with them from outside.

“A lot of times, if a kid has bumped their head at hockey, parents will call the school just so we can be more aware on the playground and keep an eye out for those kids,” said Downton.

Our advertised prices include Freight, Air Tax, and PPSA (if financed or leased). Add dealer administration and registration fees of up to $799, fuel fill charge of up to $120 and applicable taxes, then drive away.

Del Duca: Improved roads contract tendered in Kenora District

Submitted

Ontario Minister of Transportation Steven Del Duca released the following statement in response to the Auditor General’s report on winter highway maintenance, April 29: “Earlier today, the Auditor General released her report on winter highway maintenance in Ontario.

I would like to thank the Auditor for her thorough and thoughtful review and recommendations.

I know that being able to travel safely on Ontario’s highways is very important to all Ontarians. Over the past few years and following an internal review, the Ministry of Transportation and its maintenance contractors have been working together to improve the quality of winter maintenance in the province.

We’ve added over 100 pieces of equipment, strengthened our oversight, enhanced the way we plow truck climbing and passing lanes and freeway ramps and shoulders, and tendered an improved contract in Kenora.

Today’s report has confirmed what we already knew, despite the improvements we have made - the additional equipment, additional oversight and organizational changes the current system of winter highway maintenance needs to be better.

That is why last week’s budget includes funding for more equipment changes - dedicated spreaders for both urban congested areas and select locations in northern Ontario and funding to improve driving conditions with the increased use of de-icing liquids. We are also taking swift action on the Auditor’s recommendations, with several to be in place by the start of next winter.

As a ministry, we have a lot of work to do. But, so do our contractors. I will be meeting with them in person as soon as possible to determine how we can work together to improve this program and their performance.

Further, I have directed ministry staff to provide me with an action plan within 60 days that outlines plans to further strengthen and improve winter maintenance, while addressing the Auditor’s recommendations, to ensure that we are doing everything possible to provide Ontarians with safe highway conditions. I will make that action plan public.

I have also asked the Auditor General to provide a follow-up review of the winter maintenance program at the end of the next winter season to review our progress.

I look forward to reporting back on our action plan, our progress implementing the auditor’s recommendations and the additional steps we will be taking to enhance winter maintenance in Ontario.”

Bloomfield caps career with a briney romp through coral kingdom

By Chris Marchand The Dryden High School Dramatic Arts Association hit new highs with their 2015 production of Disney’s The Little Mermaid Junior.

At the end of a fournight run, an emotional scene unfolded as soon to be retired drama teacher Ellen Bloomfield, a 30 year veteran of the DHS drama department, was called to the stage for a final bow and heartfelt expression of gratitude from cast and crew, which was returned in equal measure by Bloomfield upon her students and colleagues.

The show itself was yet another step forward for the program in production quality and the skills being employed by young actresses and actors upon the stage.

Even fidgety four year olds were transfixed by the

spectacle throughout its 75 minute, no intermission runtime — punctuated by bombastic musical numbers made famous by the original animated feature.

Emma Penner (as Ariel) and Ray Cook (as Prince Eric) were able young thespians in the anchor roles. Elizabeth Bloomfield (as the villainous Ursula) left a memorable impression with her vocal performance of ‘Poor Unfortunate Souls’.

Actors Josh Couto (Scuttle), Levi McEwan (Chef Louis) Teyana Dyck (Sebastian), Jenna Fenwick (Flounder) Trenton Gauthier (King Triton) and Adam Ogilvie-Burke (Grimsby) were no less entertaining in their supporting roles.

The sound production was notably excellent and the lighting and costumes were attended to with great care.

The leads: Emma Penner as Ariel and Ray Cook as Prince Eric.

Ariel’s sisters: (not in order) Emma Olsen, Melissa Millar, Emma Taylor, Olexa Brisson, Jess Meade and Kaitlyn Bates.

Extra precautions for spring paddlers Submitted As paddlers, it’s perhaps easier than many other recreational boaters to head out on the water once the ice has receded. Just strap it to your vehicle’s roof rack and away you go.

To ensure that this outing isn’t spoiled by an emergency on the water, it’s important that we take a few extra precautions before heading out.

A good start is to invite a fellow paddler to come along with their canoe or kayak. That way, you have someone readily available to help out if needed.

Reload all your safety equipment on the boat, to make sure everything is in proper working order and that all pieces of powered equipment have fresh batteries.

The weather can change quickly in early spring.

This is also a good time to

realistically assess your paddling skills against potential weather. Don’t be fooled by balmy breezes into dressing in light clothing. The water is still very cold. Either wear or bring along thermal protective clothing that can be layered.

Other than your lifejacket, a key piece of safety equipment is a marine radio or, where service is reliable, a cell phone to call for assistance. At this time of year, there are fewer boats on the water to spot you and help. Cell phones should be kept in a watertight container to avoid potential water damage.

Before departing, tell a reliable person where you are going, when you expect to return and the number to call should you not return as scheduled.

Old rivals, the Dryden GM Ice Dogs met host team and SIJHL champions the Fort Frances Lakers in their final game of the tournament.

GM Ice Dogs fall to Lakers in Dudley Hewitt run

By Michael Christianson The Dryden GM Ice Dogs time at the Dudley Hewitt Cup was short lived but the experience will last a lifetime.

“Dudley is a high profile area for scouts, especially with this game,” said Jonathan Philley.” Lots of fans; can’t ask for much more as a hockey player.

The fans coming down from Dryden we appreciate their support so much during the whole season.

The nerves were going the whole time, we put on a pretty decent performance but it could always be better but I’m happy with the way that our series turned

out.”

The Ice Dogs tournament began with a loss to the eventual cup winning Soo Thunderbirds on April 28. Soo jumped out to an early 3-0 lead before Matt Houston scored a powerplay goal. Houston’s goal would prove to be the only time the puck saw the back of the net as the Ice Dogs went down 8-1.

The next day the Ice Dogs met last year’s Dudley Hewitt cup winners the Toronto Patriots which saw the Dogs suffer a 5-0 loss.

With hope still alive to advance in the tournament the Ice Dogs played their third game in three days

Dryden Ski Club Annual General Meeting

against the Bill Salonen cup winning Fort Frances Lakers in front of more than 1,200 fans.

Dylan Cusmano scored the first goal of the night putting the Dryden GM Ice Dogs off to an early lead at 1:40 into the game. Fort Frances would answer back with three goals before a collision at the Fort Frances goal saw SIJHL playoff MVP Nathan Park injured and replaced by back-up goalie Pierce Dushenko. Derek McPhail would add a goal in the second to put the Ice Dogs down by one entering the third period. On an early two-man advantage in the third Fort Frances added another goal to make it 4-2 before Wyatt Cota scored short handed to put the dogs down 5-2.

With 66 seconds left in the game Cole Golka would score the last goal of the Ice

Dogs season for a final score of 5-3.

Fort Frances coach Wayne Strachan spoke after the game about The Dryden GM Ice Dogs.

“It’s hard to end a team’s season,” said Strachan “They played a great game.

They’ve got a lot of skill, a lot of character, they are well coached and played their game quite well so it wasn’t easy but we didn’t want anything to come bite us in the butt so to speak with this team. They have the capability of beating us if we’re not on our game and our guys were focused and ready for them.”

Philley, who was battling injuries during the tournament was quick to thank the rival hosts for their hospitality.

“I’m really thankful to the whole Laker’s organization for getting me to a chiropractor and caring for me as

The tournament was well supported with attendance reaching 1,200 at Lakers games. a player,” said Philley.

“Everyone was worried about my health first and getting me back into the game as soon as possible.

I’m thankful for that and I couldn’t ask for better treatment while I was here.”

Ice Dogs General Manager Brian Bates was proud of his team’s perfor-

mance despite seeing room for improvements.

“The Dudley you can’t take away,” said Bates. “It was just an unbelievable cap to our season and the players got to see the best teams in the leagues in Ontario and they saw that they could compete with them.”

Once a dog, always a dog

By Michael Christianson With all their hard fought battles behind them Sunday evening’s Dryden GM Ice Dogs Awards Banquet was truly the last event of an amazing season.

The Dogs were joined by their parents and their fans at Luciano’s for dinner, speeches, awards and one last chance to say goodbye and congratulate the team.

After dinner the Mayor Craig Nuttall gave the first speech in which he encouraged the boys to think of Dryden in their future endeavors and he told them to come back and say hello any time.

Team Vice President Mike Sveinson spoke next and thanked all the out of town players for taking a chance on Dryden.

The final and most memorable speech of the night belonged to team captain Derek McPhail. An obviously emotional McPhail fought back tears and caused others to hold back their own as he spoke about the team and what this experience has meant to him. Speaking of the billet families that house the players while they are in Dryden McPhail said everyone comes in as strangers but they leave as family. He spoke from the heart about how this expe-

rience has helped him to grow up and that you won’t find a closer group of people like you will with a hockey team. Moved by the speech on an already emotional night the crowd gave the speech a well deserved standing ovation.

The whole team and staff deserves a standing ovation from Dryden. The Dryden GM Ice Dogs have come a long way from where they were this time last year.

The Ice Dogs went to the Bill Salonen Cup this year and gained experience at the Dudley Hewitt Cup when most teams across Canada had already finished their season. It is exciting to think what this team will accomplish next year.

The end of the ceremony highlighted the six twentyyear-old players who are finishing their junior careers with the Ice Dogs: Troy Williams, Nick Eytcheson, Jonathan Philley, Ryan Scott, Blake Peavy and Cole Golka.

“It’s hard to know that I am moving on from such a great place,” said Cole Golka. “I feel like I am just getting started with my junior career. I wish I was here right from the start but this organization is headed in great places and I can’t wait to see what they do in the future.”

Bidding a fond farewell to GM Ice Dogs 20 year olds: (from left) Jonathan Philley, Cole Golka, Nick Eytcheson, Blake Peavy, Eric Masters, Ryan Scott.

Mauro: Forestry on the upswing in Ontario Op-Ed by Ontario Natural Resources and Forestry Minister Bill Mauro Reconciling economic development and environmental protection can be a challenging balancing act.

But when it comes to Ontario’s forestry sector, I am proud to say that our province is achieving just that.

Forestry is very important to the province’s economy. It provides about 170,000 jobs and generates over $11 billion in annual economic activity. There are over 260 communities across Ontario – in both the north and the south – that are supported by forestry.

The sector was hit hard by the global recession, but

Memorial Donations Please consider the following Associations:

it’s now on the upswing.

Greater demand for wood products, increased housing starts and a lower Canadian dollar are all contributing to the recovery. And we’re seeing results: Ontario’s exports and annual harvest have both increased in

recent years, and companies are investing millions of dollars in communities like Hornepayne, Atikokan, Ignace, and Thunder Bay. But it’s not just these fundamentals that are putting the wind in our forestry sails.

Ontario’s record for managing our forests in a sustainable way is recognized worldwide. And this gives us a competitive advantage over jurisdictions that do not measure up to our rigorous standards. In a world where “going green” is increasingly

becoming a marketing advantage for companies and jurisdictions, we are proud to promote our forest products as sustainable, renewable and protected.

Each year, about one half of one per cent of our managed forests in Ontario are harvested, and we require that independent audits be conducted regularly to ensure our forests are managed sustainably.

Almost 80 per cent of the managed Crown forests in Ontario have obtained independent, third-party certification, which assures the marketplace that these forests meet internationally recognized ecological, economic and social standards.

And while Ontario only has about two per cent of the world’s forests, we are proud to have approximately seven per cent of the world’s certified forests.

That’s why we are viewed as a world leader in sustainability, and that’s why our government is so proud to promote our forestry industry.

Since 2005, our government has provided in excess of $1.3 billion through a range of programs in support of the forestry sector.

We recently made permanent up to $120 million in

annual support for the Northern Industrial Electricity Rate Program, which benefits forestry operations.

Over the past ten years, our government has provided over $605 million toward the construction and maintenance of public forest access roads. The 2015 Budget announced another $60 million for this year to ensure that we continue to support this vital industry that is so important to communities across Ontario.

The 2015 Budget is also making the forestry sector eligible for the $2.7-billion Jobs and Prosperity Fund.

By extending eligibility to the forestry sector, our government will help the sector increase production capacity and expand into new markets while ensuring this resource is managed sustainably. This will also help modernize the forestry sector and facilitate the production of higher value-added products by supporting the adoption of new technologies.

In addition we’ve introduced competitive tax rates and changed the Building Code to allow mid-rise wood structures up to six stories – which will increase the demand for Ontario wood.

Proclamation WHEREAS, the citizens of the City of Dryden value their health and mental health and that of their families; therefore, they are proud to support observances such as Children’s Mental Health Week; and
