ONTC operates the following public services in Northern Ontario:
- Ontario Northland Railway, offering freight and passenger rail transport

In March 2012, the government of Ontario announced its intention to wind down the ONTC, discontinue the Northlander passenger train service, and sell off the corporation's commercially valuable assets.
Famous quotes containing the word commission:
“The Church seems to totter to its fall, almost all life extinct. On this occasion, any complaisance would be criminal which told you, whose hope and commission it is to preach the faith of Christ, that the faith of Christ is preached.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
