Far North Act

Mission

The Far North Act, or Bill 191, aims to restrict development in an arbitrary 50% of the Far North of Ontario. In its current form, the bill has significant implications for economic development in the Far North. This task force will pick up on the work done previously by the Natural Resources Committee - by advocating for changes to the bill so that land-use planning occurs in the Far North without compromising the economic development opportunities that exist there.
