Niagara Escarpment Plan (2017) Niagara Escarpment Plan (2017) BLEED BLEED NIAGARA ESCARPMENT PLAN (2017) Approved by the Lieutenant Governor in Council, Order in Council No. , as an amendment to the Niagara Escarpment Plan effective June 1, 2017. Lion’s Head Provincial Nature Reserve Credit: Ontario Parks In 1990, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) named Ontario’s Niagara Escarpment a World Biosphere Reserve. This designation recognizes the Escarpment and land in its vicinity as a nationally and internationally significant landform, and endorses the Niagara Escarpment Plan. This Plan is Canada’s first, large-scale environmental land use plan. Implementation of this Plan upholds the biosphere reserve principles by balancing protection, conservation and sustainable development to ensure that the Escarpment will remain substantially as a natural environment for future generations, and by promoting collaboration and providing opportunities for research, monitoring and education. Collectively, UNESCO Biosphere Reserves form an international network of sites of excellence that collectively work to ensure environmental, economic and social (including cultural) sustainability, acting as demonstration areas and learning sites with the aim of maintaining and developing ecological and cultural diversity, and protecting ecosystem services for human well-being.

The particular combination of geological and ecological features along the Niagara Escarpment results in a landscape unequalled in Canada. The natural areas found across the Niagara Escarpment act to clean the air, provide drinking water and support recreational activities that benefit public health and overall quality of life, as well as helping to address and mitigate the effects of climate change. In addition, the region’s cultural heritage, including First Nations and Métis and European presence, is visible on the Escarpment landscape. These resources need to be protected over the long term to ensure that the connection to our shared past is maintained and that quality of life is not diminished as growth takes place. First Nations and Métis people in Ontario have a unique relationship with the land and its resources and this relationship continues to be of central importance to First Nation and Métis communities in the area of the Niagara Escarpment today. Ontario, including the area covered by the Niagara Escarpment Plan Area, is largely covered by a number of Treaties which provide for treaty rights. In addition, Aboriginal communities may have Aboriginal rights within the Plan area. Human impact on the Escarpment environment is reflected in a variety of ways. The Escarpment area is the site of a large mineral aggregate extraction industry. Demand for permanent and seasonal residences in many areas is intense. Farming ranges from the cultivation of tender fruit and other specialty crops in the Niagara Peninsula to the raising of beef cattle in Bruce County and provision of local food to Ontario’s largest population centres nearby. The proximity of that large population also makes the Escarpment a popular tourist destination. The Niagara Escarpment Planning and Development Act established a planning process to ensure that the area would be protected. From this emerged the Niagara Escarpment Plan (this Plan), which serves as a framework of objectives and policies to strike a balance between development, protection and the enjoyment of this important landform feature and the resources it supports. Niagara Escarpment Plan 1 Introduction On February 8, 1990, the Bureau of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) Man and Biosphere (MAB) program approved the designation of the Niagara Escarpment as a Biosphere Reserve. The designation was confirmed in 2002 and again in 2016 through the 10-year periodic review process which was led by the Niagara Escarpment Commission. The Greenbelt Act, 2005 authorized the preparation of the Greenbelt Plan, which was first approved in February, 2005. The Greenbelt Plan identifies where urbanization should not occur in order to provide permanent protection of the agricultural land and the ecological features and functions occurring in the Greenbelt Plan Area, which includes the Niagara Escarpment Plan Area, as well as the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan Area, and the Protected Countryside of the Greenbelt Plan. The Greenbelt Plan provides that the policies of the Niagara Escarpment Plan are the policies of the Greenbelt Plan for the Niagara Escarpment Plan Area and the Protected Countryside policies do not apply with the exception of section 3.3 (Parkland, Open Space and Trails). The Niagara Escarpment Plan, the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan and the Greenbelt Plan work within the framework set out by the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe for where and how future population and employment growth should be accommodated. Together, all four provincial plans build on the Provincial Policy Statement to establish a land use planning framework for the Greater Golden Horseshoe and the Greenbelt Plan Area that supports a thriving economy, a clean and healthy environment and social equity.

Col. John By, Royal Engineers; Royal Engineers Museum of Military Engineering Gillingham, U.K. If ever a man deserved to be immortalized in this utilitarian age, it was Lieutenant Colonel By. In an unexplored part of the country, where the only mode of progress was the frail Indian canoe, with a department to be organized, workmen to be instructed and many difficulties to overcome, he constructed a truly remarkable work. (Captain Richard Bonnycastle of the Royal Engineers, London, 1842) RIDEAU CANAL NATIONAL HISTORIC SITE OF CANADA Management Plan Foreword Canada’s national historic sites, national parks and national marine conservation areas represent the soul of our country. They are a central part of who we are and what we are. They are places of beauty and wonder and heritage. Each tells its own story. Together, they connect Canadians to our roots, to our future and to each other. We see a future in which each of the national historic sites of Canada, whether federally owned or not, enjoys sound commemorative health, and in which our system of sites evolves as our country evolves. Our national historic sites will be places for all Canadians to experience and learn from. They will help our communities to be vibrant and creative, and contribute to our efforts to revitalize Canada’s cities.

It encompasses the former Townships of Eastnor, Lindsay and St. Edmunds and the Village of Lion’s Head. Many other hamlets within NBP are Tobermory, Stokes Bay, Pike Bay, Miller Lake, Barrow Bay, Ferndale, Dyers Bay and the Lindsay 20 communities. The Municipality of Northern Bruce Peninsula is the northerly neighbouring community to South Bruce Peninsula, Highway 6 traverses northerly through NBP.

We are home to Fathom Five National Marine Park, Bruce Peninsula National Park, the Bruce Trail, Niagara Escarpment, UNESCO World Biosphere, Cabot Head and Lion’s Head Nature Reserves, two First Nations Hunting Reserves and a large Bruce County Forest Tract. NBP covers an area of 781.51 square kilometers boasting a permanent population of 3,900 year round residents and just over 5000 households. The Public Works Department maintains 475 kilometres of roads and streets, some of which are paved, some gravelled. Some roads provide year round access while others enjoy only summer accessibility. In 2004, NBP was proclaimed as a “dark sky community” in the hope of preserving and protecting the night time environment and our heritage of dark skies through the use of quality outdoor lighting and goals established which are intended to stop the adverse effects of light pollution.
