OnRAMP - Northeastern Ontario

Welcome to OnRAMP

The Ontario Government is responding to the varying needs of municipalities by piloting a regional web portal project – the Ontario Regional Area Municipal Portal (OnRAMP). These web pages are designed to enhance municipal client information and support services. The Northeastern OnRAMP provides an online portal to resources tailored to the needs of municipalities in Northeastern (NE) Ontario.

We would appreciate any comments.

Municipal Search Tool

The OnRAMP regional search tool has been recently replaced with a search tool created by AMCTO with support from the Ministry. This new search tool allows you to search all municipal websites, or to limit your search to municipal websites within the northeast. In addition, you can search by AMCTO zone, by size of municipality and by northern vs. southern municipalities. Click here to open the AMCTO search tool in a new window.
