The Township boasts the friendly villages of Lucknow, Ripley and Point Clark that are full of community spirit and have rich histories dating back more than 150 years. The friendly communities, sandy beaches and beautiful sunsets are just a few reasons why you will want to “stay for awhile… or a lifetime”.

The REA was assigned to a subsidiary, Suncor Adelaide Wind Limited Partnership (Suncor) on August 5, 2014. Since receipt of the REA, Suncor has identified the need to make a minor amendment to the Project as it was described in the REA Application documents and subsequently approved by the Ministry. The Project started construction in spring 2014 and became fully operational on January 29, 2015. During a recent internal review of the Project’s final as-built design, it was noted that an access road and collector cable leading to Turbine WTG 22 was installed with a slight deviation from the approved location. The as-built access road and cable leading to WTG 22 was constructed on top of an existing farm lane. A portion of the as built location of the cable and access road were constructed through an unassessed area of land approximately 0.35 acres in size. Please see the attached drawing entitled T22 Access Road/Cable Amendment which shows the route approved as part of the REA and the as-built location of the access road and collector cable.

  • 2018 Swift Briefing Note
    Briefing Note Project Update: 2018 Background: SouthWestern Integrated Fibre Technology Inc. (SWIFT) is a not-for-profit, collective broadband initiative that is funding the construction of an affordable, open-access, ultra-high-speed fibre-optic regional broadband network for everyone in Southwestern Ontario, Caledon and the Niagara Region. To overcome our region’s broadband infrastructure gaps, SWIFT has developed a long-term plan to help more than 3.5 million Ontarians, or 25% of Ontario’s population, to connect and keep pace in a changing digital world. The project is leveraging $180 million in combined investments by the federal and provincial governments and over $17 million in investments by municipalities across the region. The project was initiated by the combined connectivity interests of all 15 members of the Western Ontario Wardens’ Caucus (WOWC). This includes Brant, Bruce, Chatham-Kent, Elgin, Dufferin, Essex, Grey, Huron, Lambton, Middlesex, Norfolk, Oxford, Perth, Simcoe, and Wellington County. In addition, Barrie, Caledon, Mulmer, Orillia, Windsor and the Niagara and Waterloo Regions are also supporting the project. Non-municipal members include Beausoleil First Nation, Connecting Windsor-Essex (CW- E), Chatham Kent Georgian College, Grey Bruce Health Services, InterMarket Inc., Chatham-Kent Lambton Administrators Group (CKLAG), Niagara CIO Consortium (NCC), Saugeen First Nation, Simcoe County Access Network (SCAN), Six Nations of the Grand River, and the Stratford Economic Enterprise Development Corporation. Issue: In today’s digital world, a fast, reliable internet connection serves as more than just a convenience. Broadband connectivity is an essential piece of community infrastructure that is necessary to enhance economic and social development, modernize and streamline the delivery of health and social services, and increase capacity to administer and govern institutions.

    Passport to your parks canada travel experience Personal Information NAME: ADDRESS: TELEPHONE: Opposite photo: Gros Morne National Park in western Newfoundland. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Gros Morne is known for its rugged beauty, majestic fjords, unique geology, exceptional hiking (backcountry and frontcountry) and its local culture. Photo of Gros Morne provided courtesy of the Newfoundland and Labrador Department of Tourism. The human spirit needs places where nature has not been rearranged • by the hand of man. • ~ Author Unknown Telling the Story of Canada Canada’s national parks and national historic sites tell the story of a remarkable country. Each is an experience that celebrates the beauty and infinite variety of one of the world’s most geographically and culturally diverse nations. Protected and preserved for all Canadians and the world, each park and site provides a haven, not only for plants and animals, but also for the human spirit. Whether it’s the sight of Gros Morne’s magnificent fjords, the feel of the marsh breezes at Fort Beauséjour—Fort Cumberland, the taste of the salt air at Prince Edward Island National Park, or the sound of the cannon at the Fortress of Louisbourg, Canada’s national parks and national historic sites stir the emotions. They tell a story of enduring Aboriginal presence, diverse landscapes and wildlife, early settlers and their struggles, fishing, shipbuilding, imperial conflict, nation building and creative genius. Hiking a scenic trail, touring an interpretive exhibit or viewing the vestiges of an ancient settlement, you hear that story—you feel it, you relive it. As you experience Parks Canada’s gateways to nature, history, discovery and adventure, let your senses be your guide.
