Colleges and universities in Northern Ontario are thinking of offering incentives for students to study there.
Post-secondary institutions in Southern Ontario are awash in students, but their northern counterparts have more spaces than they can fill.
The northern schools say they should take in some of the over flow of Ontario students.

OPP Marine Flares
OPP Detachments across Northwestern Ontario are now accepting expired marine flares.
Due to environmental concerns and the dangers of explosion, old recreational marine flares shouldn't be disposed at landfill sites.
OPP will be accepting them until Saturday, at which time they will be handed over to Transport Canada.
