The Role of Corporate & Community Champions

Corporate and Community Champions play a vital role in strengthening the voice and sustainability of Ontario’s outdoor tourism industry. Their support helps ensure that outfitters—many of whom operate in remote and rural regions—have the representation, resources, and advocacy needed to navigate regulatory changes, protect access to natural resources, and grow their businesses.

By standing with NOTO, these champions help amplify the collective voice of operators across the province and contribute to the long-term success of an industry that supports local economies, jobs, and communities throughout Ontario.
