      Historique

      The Department of Northern Development was formed in 1926 from the Northern Development Branch of the Ontario Department of Lands and Forests.

      Although established as a separate Department, it was presided over by a Deputy Minister and reported to the Legislature through the Minister of Lands and Forests (1926-1935), the Minister of Public Works and Highways (1936), and through the Minister of Highways (1937).

      The primary branch within the Department was the Colonization Roads Branch, which was responsible for the planning and construction of roads and bridges in the northern portions of the province. In addition, however, the Department was also involved in activities which provided loans and advancements to settlers for seed, cattle and other livestock, as well as for agricultural machinery.

      On April 1, 1937, the Department of Northern Development was absorbed into the Department of Highways.
