History


North Frontenac was created in 1998 by the amalgamation of three municipalities: the Township of Barrie; the Township of Clarendon and Miller; and the Township of Palmerston, North and South Canonto.



Local Government


North Frontenac is governed by a mayor, a deputy mayor who serves as both mayor and councillor and five councillors. Each municipal ward is represented by two councillors. The deputy mayor serves as both councillor of Ward 1 and deputy mayor. The Mayor of North Frontenac represents the town on the Frontenac County Council, which consists of four mayors, each with a chosen councillor from their township[3]. As of the 2018 election, the elected council members are:[4]


Mayor: Ron Higgins


Deputy Mayor: Fred Perry


Councillors:


  • Ward 1: Fred Perry

  • Ward 1: Wayne Good

  • Ward 2: Gerry Martin

  • Ward 2: Vernon Hermer

  • Ward 3: Denis Bedard

  • Ward 3: John Inglis


Geography


North Frontenac is in the heart of eastern Ontario's cottage country. Cottages and campsites dot the shores of the Township's many clean lakes. Located entirely on the Canadian Shield, the landscape can often be rough and unpredictable, but at the same time provides scenic vistas. Residents, both permanent and seasonal, enjoy a wide variety of outdoor activities.


In the summer, many people spend their time on the large network of trails, hiking, hunting, and off-roading with ATVs. Equally popular are water activities like swimming, boating, fishing, water-skiing, tubing, canoeing, and kayaking.


The winter season is also enjoyed by residents, and significant snowfall blankets the landscape. Residents commonly enjoy snowmobiling and snowshoeing the large expanse of trails, and continue to fish through the ice; the frozen lakes are scattered with fishing huts. In all, the vast expanse of natural setting that exists in North Frontenac, with a seemingly endless array of scenery to take in, is beautiful and unique during all of the four seasons.



Communities


The township includes the communities of Ardoch, Beatty, Beech Corners, Canonto, Coxvale, Donaldson, Fernleigh, Harlowe, Mississippi Station, Myers Cave, Ompah, Plevna, Robertsville, Snow Road Station and Wilbur.

Demographics


The Township of North Frontenac is a 1,164.73 square km lower-tier municipality, part of Frontenac County, and home to over 1,842 permanent residents. In addition, there are an estimated 5,000 seasonal residents. The low density of the population (1.7 people per km2) makes for the preservation of a scenic landscape. North Frontenac is set in the heart of eastern Ontario's cottage country. For these reasons it is one of the best destinations for outdoor activities and relaxing living in southeastern Ontario.
