Realignment of Forestry Responsibilities
Realignment of Forestry Responsibilities
Please note: On June 24th this year, Premier McGuinty announced the realignment of forestry from the Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) to the Ministry of Northern Development and Mines — now the Ministry of Northern Development, Mines and Forestry (MNDMF) — in recognition of the important role the industry plays in Ontario's northern communities. This was done to help make the province more competitive, create jobs and strengthen our economy.
The formal realignment took place on September 3, 2009. However, the web pages detailing the business functions of forestry in Ontario are still housed on the Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) website.
We are working on transferring the pages detailing the business functions of forest to the Ministry of Northern Development, Mines and Forestry (MNDMF) website. Thank you for your patience.
