Newspaper photocopies, press releases,and radio transcriptions from Ontario newspapers from 1971 - 1997 relating to Lands for Life and related issues.

The Ontario government's planning process for forestry and land management through the late 1990s and early 2000s, represented in the records of the Boreal West Round Table, Lands for Life planning process, and Living Legacy Trust.

Lands for Life was a comprehensive land-use planning process that also considered environmental protection in Ontario. It was announced in February, 1997 by the Minister of Natural Resources. The goal was to address the increasing demands for access to the province's natural resources. It was designed for all areas of the Precambrian shield south of 51 degrees latitude.

The project created three "Round Tables" made up of citizens with knowledge of the land, or who were involved with resource based businesses. The Round Tables were: Boreal West (Northwestern Ontario), Boreal East (Eastern Ontario), and Great Lakes - St. Lawrence (Southern Ontario).

As the Lands for Life project concluded, the Province designated the Living Legacy Trust fund to support land use planning and natural resources and environmental management. This fund ran from 1999 to 2004.

Consists of Lands for Life public material, from the start of the project. Includes records such as meeting materials, correspondence, community meetings, presentations in Northwestern Ontario, media and publicity, and reference material.

Includes newsletters, news clippings, and other materials primarily for the public related to the Lands For Life consultations and related issues.

Newspaper photocopies, press releases, and radio transcriptions from Ontario newspapers from 1988 - 1998 relating to Lands for Life.
