Northern Ontario: where homegrown solutions and innovation are the norm, not the exception

摘要

People from northern Ontario are a resilient bunch. Big on homegrown solutions, northerners don't often shy away from a challenge. An unforgiving climate, limited infrastructure and hard to access resources have led to a culture of innovation that has propelled northern Ontario's mining industry for many decades, giving rise to research and development (R&D) which is now in demand all over the world. The innovation coming out of northern Ontario is not only increasing productivity and driving down costs, but also creating safer working conditions in historically hazardous environments.
