The Canadian Forces is trying to increase its presence in Northwestern Ontario.

Speaking in Dryden, Lieutenant-Colonel Steve Hill noted the Military is now making a concentrated effort to form domestic partners.

Hill says one option is helping the Ministry of Natural Resources during hectic forest fire seasons.

Hill says they were hoping to conduct some work locally last year, but a quiet season changed plans quickly.
