In 2009, the Pontiac MRC and CLD, in partnership with the SADC, the Ministry of Economic Development, Innovation and Export of Quebec (MDÉIE) and Canada Economic Development (CED), initiated a strategic planning process to redefine the socioeconomic future of our communities.
The process called for a visionary, integrated and participative approach. A series of public consultations involving interested parties (including citizens) held in five key sectors (tourism, culture and community, commerce and industry, forestry and natural environment, and agriculture and agri-food) led to a 10-year strategic direction for the MRC Pontiac and a subsequent action plan (below).
