Mac Bain was a tireless advocate for Northern Ontario and the rural and smaller communities that are so important to our province. Through his leadership at FONOM, he worked to ensure these communities had a strong voice on the issues that matter to them. His commitment to municipal government and to the people who serve their communities leaves a meaningful legacy. On behalf of ROMA, I extend sincere condolences to Mac’s family, friends and everyone who had the privilege of working alongside him. He will be greatly missed.

ROMA advocacy is leading to real impact.

The CRTC has announced a new approach to mapping and reporting cellular coverage, directly addressing ROMA recommendations from a letter earlier this year.

This will help Ontarians better understand where cellphone coverage is available and where there may be gaps, helping to support investment where is it needed.

What makes your rural Ontario special?

Is it the neighbour who always lends a hand? The local business on Main Street? A community festival? A family farm? A volunteer who never says no? The landscape, traditions or people that make your community home?

Rural Ontario looks different from community to community—and that’s part of what makes it so special.

Today, we’re celebrating your rural Ontario. Share what makes your community unique using .

Rural Ontario is building for the future.

Across the province, rural municipalities are planning and investing in the infrastructure, housing, services and communities that will support the next generation.

Building strong rural communities takes long-term thinking, local leadership and partnerships.

ROMA will continue working to ensure rural municipalities have the tools and investments they need to build sustainable communities and contribute to Ontario’s future.
