About us

The Ontario Marine Council (OMC) is an industry association representing the major stakeholders in Ontario’s marine sectors. It is the voice of the marine industry in Ontario, a sounding board that government can use as a bellwether for the industry. Our membership includes Port Operators, Shipyards, Ship Owners, and the St. Lawrence Seaway Management Corporation. In partnership with the Ontario government and industry stakeholders, the Ontario Marine Council will work to ensure Ontario’s marine economy realizes its full economic, environmental and social potential.

A comprehensive Ontario Marine Strategy should prioritize: - Investing in infrastructure (Strategic Goods Movement Network) - Supporting Ontario Shipyards - Establishing multi-modal logistical hubs - Developing Short Sea Shipping - Increasing the connectivity of the supply chain - Investing in training for skilled labour and marine professionals - Increase awareness of the marine industry - Expanding maritime tourism - Promote Ontario’s marine sector globally - MTO to establish a Directorate to launch and manage the Ontario Marine Transportation Strategy, fostering collaboration with the industry, within the Ontarian government and other jurisdictions.
