This week, I’m in Sault Ste Marie & Algoma, Ontario for meetings & field tours related to Ontario forest policy & what that looks like on the ground. But 1st a stop at Recollet Falls in French River Provincial Park. Ontario is such a beautiful province. @OntarioParks @ONresources

Hey @NGKids, My 5-year-old daughter’s National Geographic Little Kids magazine was delivered in rough shape. She loves your magazines and was pretty sad to receive the Jan-Feb 2025 issue like this. Any chance of sending her a new one?

@Larlo1964 @ONresources Lol. To be fair, it was Sunday and my laptop was at home.

@JustinGaudon @ONresources and true to LRC style she still doesn't have a working computer :)

Meet the new National & International Forestry Advisor! Lol. A future @ONresources employee maybe? #Forestry #ForestPolicy #Policy
