2 Overview What is Northern Policy Institute? Economic growth in Northern Ontario Economic growth in Greater Sudbury Conclusions and observations Q/A and Discussion

3 What IS Northern Policy Institute Independent - There are a couple of BIG differences between working WITH a Policy Institute and HIRING a consultant : we don t work for you and we can t guarantee an answer you will like. Independent means just that Funders, members and stakeholders do not direct the work of Northern Policy Institute. Board, funders, members and stakeholders do not pick projects or pre-determine results. Staff and contract authors follow the evidence Northern Policy Institute does NOT take positions we ask the questions the authors provide, and defend, the answers. Their analysis is tested before publication: Double blind peer review just like academic journals.

4 Our Region Northern Ontario consists of (Census, 211): 2 Economic Regions 11 Districts 166 Communities 72 First Nations 94 Municipalities ~ 78, individuals

5 78, bosses We work for and take direction from the people of Northern Ontario. Over 1 meetings and events in the past twelve months throughout Northern Ontario and beyond. Top ten issues: 1. Cost of electricity: WAY too high. 2. Need for partnership and collaboration among our communities. 3. Importance of the issues and challenges facing aboriginal communities. 4. Who decides our fate? 5. Our communities are dying; How do we sustain them and keep people in (attract new people to) the North? 6. Infrastructure: transportation and communication. 7. Protecting/understanding/reflecting the northern way of life. 8. Training access and relevance to local opportunities. 9. Do we really know ourselves? Data and measurement. 1. Where does all the money from the North go?

6 Know the North Statscan knows a little: 2 summer interns Drill down (to postal codes) then build up (to community level) Collectively, we know a lot: 6 summer interns Municipalities, First Nations Communities, Aboriginal Groups, Economic Development Agencies, Research Institutes, Unions, Chambers and other Community/ Grassroots Organizations What do you know? your data How do you know it? your tools, your timing (one time or cyclical?) Common tools - provincial surveys, common questions, common measures Examples: chamber and municipal satisfaction surveys, Sioux Lookout mining permit survey, Kenora growth project, Thunder Bay index, everything you ask or know about your community The KEY open honest sharing of information

7 Three ways YOUR issue gets on OUR to-do list 1. Research if necessary: Northern Policy Institute standing consultation tools will be used to inform, test and reset our internal research agenda and priorities. If your issue is shared by your friends and neighbours, it will likely get onto our to-do list. 2. But not necessarily research: YOU do the work, commission the study, and you send it to us for re-publication or dissemination. Big parts of our job involve avoiding wasteful duplication of effort and getting the word out about what has already been done. 3. Working WITH Northern Policy Institute: NOT a consulting service, but will partner in cash, or in kind to expedite needed work.

8 Trends and Characteristics in the North

9 We are a small piece of the provincial pie in population terms The north makes up only 6% of Ontario s total population (Census, 211) Northern Ontario Rest of Province

10 BUT, we are a big part of the global north Source: New Northern Lens, Northern Policy Institute 215

11 AND, our resources are of global significance Northern Ontario is one of the most important resource producing regions in Canada. In 213, Northern Ontario accounted for almost all the metals production and 23% of the non-metals produced in Ontario, Since 26 the region has consistently produced between 67 and 79% of the value of all Ontario s mineral production.

44 Conclusions and Observations Sudbury s population projections are weak, but not written in stone The number of working age women in Sudbury is disproportionately low Employment (including full-time) and participation rates in Sudbury are at or nearing provincial and national levels the gap is closing Youth migration in the North is slowing; Sudbury is leading the way Youth labour force indicators in Sudbury are strong recent influx of youth are added benefit but more needs to be done The food services industry shows promising signs of growth Trends in commercial building appear to be highly volatile Growth in residential building has not recovered from the financial crisis

45 Thank you. Merci. Miigwetch.

46 Discussion Questions How can the public AND private sector: 1. Continue to attract and retain youth in Sudbury? 2. Attract and retain women in Sudbury? 3. Encourage local entrepreneurial endeavours? 4. Foster greater certainty and growth in commercial and residential investments?
