Fednor

FedNor

The Federal Economic Development Initiative for Northern Ontario (or FedNor) is a program of Industry Canada whose mission is to address the economic development, diversification and job creation in Northern Ontario. FedNor especially aids women, Franco-ontarians, youth, and Aboriginal peoples in Ontario. While a lot of progress has been made in achieving FedNor's objectives, communities in Northern and rural Ontario continue to face the ongoing structural challenges that necessitate a stable, long-term regional development effort.
