north by numbers  A new website has been setup that combines data on immigration numbers, population, income and more across northern Ontario.

northbaynumbers.ca was designed by Northern Policy Institute.

President and CEO Charles Cirtwell says they took the information from the last three censuses to compile the data.

Cirtwell says this is just the starting point as they hope to include information from other surveys, CMHC data and statistics the municipalities have to send in to the province.

Cirtwell says overtime this will be a single access point for all that critical information for members of government and students.
