Ontario Trails Council - National Trail Program Announced

We Value Our Members - Mr. Jack De Wit, OTC President

Dear Members - I often get questioned what are the benefits of an OTC Membership?  Your financial support enables us to assist trail groups and do many more things in support of trails.

This week the Ontario Trails Council will be a full participant in meetings of the Canadian Trails Federation in Ottawa. Our involvement there has resulted in much work with the National Trails Coalition, and in the direct securing of funding that we used to make trails in Ontario. I am pleased to provide you with the JOB ADS for the position of National Coordinator for the Project.


As you can see your financial support may not return directly to your community, but with it, by keeping the OTC viable, we are able to preserve or develop trails somewhere in Ontario.

Sincerely, Jack De Wit, President.

Ontario Trail News - candidates respond to Ontario Trails election questions

Ontario Trails asks Leaders and Candidates to Respond

As we head into the Ontario Provincial election we are often asked by our membership to make sure trail issues are valued by candidates. This year we crafted 9 questions that you may use with your own candidates.

We have forwarded these to the leaders of the 4 major parties. Today we received a response from the Premier, Kathleen Wynne. 

As you receive local responses please send your answers to the OTC and we'll keep a record of who said what.

Also at OTC we are party neutral, these questions have been provided to all candidates and the leaders of the 4 main political parties. In fact today PC party ads are running, through the google ad distribution system on the OTC website.
