Looking for local intel?  We’ve got you covered.

Part of being positioned for growth is making sure we have the right information to make the right decisions.  The Almaguin Community Economic Development (ACED) Committee, on behalf of its municipalities, has undertaken a significant amount of research heavy projects to make sure that we can show evidence to support our actions.  With the support of the government of Ontario and FedNor, we are pleased to make all of the information available to you.  Please feel free to contact the economic development office for print versions, or for any document accessibility concerns.
