The Northeast Superior Forest Community is a partnership of the Northeastern
Superior Mayors’ Group and six forest-dependent communities in
Northern Ontario
’s
Northeastern Lake
Superior
boreal forest region.
Northeast Superior Forest Community communities are uniting to transform
the region’s traditional forest sector into new opportunities for innovative industry
development. Their vision is of a prosperous future in non-traditional opportunities
for economic diversification in areas such as bio-energy and wood-related projects,
non-timber forest product development, and education and marketing initiatives.
NSFC partners represent towns with a strong forestry heritage and
industry-based economies, and have developed a shared economic strategy for their
forest communities. Recognizing their future still depends on forest resources despite
recent economic downturns, they are acting as a catalyst to make their region’s
forest sector work for the committed people whose homes and livelihoods are rooted
in this region and its forest-based economy.
