Municipal representatives accounted for slightly more than half of the roughly 225 people attending the annual general meeting of the Northwestern Ontario Municipal Association on April 17-19 in Thunder Bay.
Once the program got underway Thursday morning, Dr. Robert Rosehart, Northwestern Ontario economic facilitator, was the first speaker. He presented his report entitled, “Northwestern Ontario: Preparing For Change.”
Dr. Rosehart, a past president of Lakehead University in Thunder Bay, led a review of the northern economy in 1986.
