ATR Unit

In 2024-2025, OALA partnered with Urban Systems Ltd and Indigenous Services Canada Ontario Region to introduce a new unit to support OALA Members in navigating the ATR process. The goal of establishing this unit is to develop user-friendly resources that provide a basic understanding of the often-complex technical and legal requirements of completing an ATR, along with providing a direct support line for lands staff.
