We invite you to come and learn about Windmill Development Group’s ambitious plan to honour the complex history and industrial legacy of the old Domtar lands in the Ottawa River – Albert Island, Chaudière Island, and the North shore in Gatineau. Windmill is making way for a state-of-the-art real estate project combining ecological design, promote environmental and social sustainability, and community wellbeing. 

Zibi (the Algonquin-Anishinabe word for “river”) is a community that will bring together Canada’s three founding Nations – the First Nations, the French, the English. The project is complex due to its position in multiple jurisdictions, straddling Ontario and Quebec, Ottawa and Gatineau, and sections of the National Capital Commission.  The potential and success of Zibi are larger than the project itself, with connections to environmental review, land use planning and community building with the Algonquin Nation.

Join us to learn more and ask questions about the Outaouais’s most significant development project in a generation, and the background environmental issues for Ontario and Quebec. Register now!
