Ontario borders on 4 of the 5 Great Lakes, and is blessed with over 250,000 inland lakes that all need our care and attention.
With the support of and on behalf of community groups and individual members from across Ontario we support your interests:
- Healthy and sustainable environments
- Fair property taxation
- Emergency services / rural crime / fire safety
