Regardless of how the Township got to this place, there needs to be immediate changes to relieve this situation. Here are just a few actionable points: Better […]

Go Local
Our community grows stronger with local support. Maybe that means eating lunch at the Rawley Resort or at the Chef Henrie Bistro. It could be attending the Honey Bee Festival in Honey Harbour. Whatever it is, doing it locally means more business, more jobs, and more prosperity for the Township. Local support also means looking […]
Connect with Residents
Because of the sparse population and the large area the Township encompasses, it can be difficult for communities within the Township to connect and share information and resources.

Environmental Protection
Maintaining the water quality in Muskoka is a key element to protecting our environment and the health of humans, animals, and aquatic life. As climate changes, we need to take steps to protect our natural ecosystems. Planning policies to protect the shoreline and actions to manage invasive species such as phragmites, zebra mussels, and LDD […]
