Plan the Bruce: Heritage

Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Linkedin Email this link


Identifying and Promoting Our Culture

Bruce County is rich in cultural heritage resources. Past activities of Indigenous peoples, the Great Lakes maritime history, pioneers, and people who founded our towns, villages and early industry all contribute to our cultural heritage. In preserving these resources, we preserve our identity, support tourism and maintain a strong sense of community. Planning can focus efforts on preservation, creating distance between the resource and new development, managing the resource to either keep its value or grow it.

Good planning decisions now will help us inventory and protect our heritage assets, celebrate achievement and nurture our cultural heritage.

Project Status: IN PROGRESS

Bruce County’s Cultural Action Plan was endorsed as the County’s strategic Cultural Planning tool in October 2021, and implementation is underway. Bruce County’s Archaeological Management Plan is anticipated for completion in Q3 2022. The Plan the Bruce: Heritage Discussion Paper was received for engagement in April 2022.
