Norfolk County Proclaimed Forest Capital of Canada 2008

Oakville, January 9, 2008
On Tuesday, January 8, 2008, MP Diane Finley was pleased to participate in the proclamation of Norfolk County as the Forest Capital of Canada 2008.

To recognize achievements in forestry in Norfolk, the Canadian Forestry Association has seen fit to award the title of “Forest Capital of Canada“ to Norfolk County this year. A coalition of more than 20 local organisations has been preparing for this event for several months now.

Forests have always played an important role in the daily lives of the residents of the County of Norfolk. MP Diane Finley congratulates Norfolk County on being a most worthy recipient of this award and she thanks all of the volunteers who worked so hard to make this day possible!
