The Ontario Ministry of Agriculture has paid a visit to northern Ontario for its annual meeting. It’s the first time the meet has been held in Kapuskasing in well over a decade. Manager of Economic Development for the town of Kapuskasing Andre Robichaud says the growing prominence of agricultural projects in the north is part of why the meeting was held here. Reps from the ministry spent three days in the area touring places like the Demonstration Farm and the Loon Vodka Distillery.
