797. Greater Sudbury Councillor Mike Parent

Welcome to Cross Border Interviews, the online show where we dive into the insights of municipal political leaders from across Canada. Our mission is to shine a light on the dedicated individuals who, day in and day out, work around the council table to shape the communities we call home. Joining us for today’s episode is City of Greater Sudbury Councillor Mike Parent The City of Greater Sudbury is centrally located in Northeastern Ontario at the convergence of three major highways. It is situated on the Canadian Shield in the Great Lakes Basin and is composed of a rich mix of urban, suburban, rural and wilderness environments. Greater Sudbury is 3,186 square kilometres in area, making it the geographically largest municipality in Ontario and second largest in Canada. Greater Sudbury is a world-class mining centre. The city's mining companies employ approximately 6,000 people and support a 300-company mining supply and service sector cluster that employs a further 10,000 people. The city is also a regional centre in financial and business services, tourism, health care and research, education and government for Northeastern Ontario - an area that stretches from the Quebec border west to the eastern shore of Lake Superior and north to the James and Hudson's Bay coastlines. Greater Sudbury is a regional hub for many Ontario residents who live in nearby communities. These visitors come to the city to visit with family and friends, for cultural and educational experiences, such as Science North and Dynamic Earth, for entertainment, for shopping and for conducting business. ***************************************************  Learn More About Today's Community: https://www.greatersudbury.ca/ ***************************************************  Support The Show Today: https://www.crossborderinterviews.ca/support-the-show Join The Show: https://www.crossborderinterviews.ca/be-part-of-the-show  *************************************************** Follow Us On Social Media:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/crossborderpodcast/ Threads: https://www.threads.net/@crossborderpodcast  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CrossBorderInterviews/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/crossborderinterviews/  *************************************************** Listen To The Show:  Apple: https://apple.co/3XwwXIv Spotify: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cross-border-interviews Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/crossborderinterviewswithchrisbrown Website: https://www.crossborderinterviews.ca/ Cross Border Interview is Part of the Cross Border Network © 2024
