MLF Meets with NCC in Ottawa to request maple proclamation

Posted by MLF Webmaster on
 May 22, 2014

On May 14th, Maple Leaves Forever (MLF) met in Ottawa with the National Capital Commission (NCC) to request that:

“If a maple tree is to be planted in the Ottawa region
it must be a Native Canadian Maple”

This was favourably received with the next step being MLF making a formal request to the NCC Board at the end of June.
