WCS Canada
720 Spadina Ave, Suite 600, Toronto, Ontario

WCS Canada focuses on saving the best of the wild -- rich landscapes where wildlife conservation can be achieved at a large scale -- because others don't. Governments and industry give too little attention to the effect of cumulative impacts of development and climate change on ecosystems. WCS is drawing attention to the need to secure a natural legacy for future generations. We do field research on wildlife and share our results, and we provide advice on conservation policies and planning for protected areas.

West Lincoln Historical Society
288 Station Street, Smithville, Ontario

In 1884, the Ontario Legislature granted the T.H. & B. Railway Company the right to build a rail line from Toronto to Buffalo.

Robert Murgatroyd Sr. became a provisional Director of the railway and worked hard to have it come through Smithville, rather than north of the town, as originally planned.
