. Transportation routes in Ontario evolved from early waterway travel and First Nations paths followed by European explorers Ontario has two major east-west routes both starting from Montreal in the neighbouring province of Quebec the northerly route which was a major fur trade route travels west from Montreal along the Ottawa River then continues northwestward towards Manitoba Major cities on or near the route include Ottawa North Bay Sudbury Sault Ste Marie and Thunder Bay the southerly route which was driven by growth in settlements originated by the United Empire Loyalists and later other European immigrants travels southwest from Montreal along the St Lawrence River Lake Ontario and Lake Erie before entering the United States in Michigan Major cities on or near the route include Kingston Belleville Peterborough Oshawa Toronto Mississauga Kitchener-Waterloo Hamilton London Sarnia and Windsor This route was also heavily used by immigrants to the Midwestern US particularly in the late 19th century Roads, Founding A large number of residents from New Brunswick are employed in the primary sector of industry More than 13,000 New Brunswickers work in agriculture shipping products worth over $1 billion half of which is from crops and half of that from potatoes mostly in the Saint John River valley McCain Foods is one of the world's largest manufacturers of frozen potato products Other products include apples cranberries and maple syrup. New Brunswick was in 2015 the biggest producer of wild blueberries in Canada the value of the livestock sector is about a quarter of a billion dollars nearly half of which is dairy Other sectors include poultry fur and goats sheep and pigs A paper mill in Saint John About 83% of New Brunswick is forested Historically important it accounted for more than 80% of exports in the mid 1800s By the end of the 1800s the industry and shipbuilding were declining due to external economic factors the 1920s saw the development of a pulp and paper industry in the mid-1960s forestry practices changed from the controlled harvests of a commodity to the cultivation of the forests the industry employs nearly 12,000 generating revenues around $437 million Mining was historically unimportant in the province but since the 1950s has grown and in 2012 was an estimated $1.1 billion Mines in New Brunswick produce lead zinc copper and potash Education, Human Development Report Separate A farm in Caledon There were 3,707 farms in the Greater Toronto Area according to the 2006 census While it was once the most dominant industry for residents in the Greater Toronto Area agriculture now occupies a small percentage of the population but still a large part of land in the surrounding four regional municipalities Census data from 2006 has shown there are 3,707 census farms in the GTA down 4.2% from 2001 and covering 274,363 hectares (677,970 acres). Almost every community in the GTA is currently experiencing a decrease in the acreage of farmland with Mississauga seeing the most significant the only communities in the GTA which are experiencing a growth in the acreage of farmland are Aurora Georgina Newmarket Oshawa Richmond Hill and Scugog with Markham experiencing neither any growth nor decline. Most of the GTA's farmland is in Durham Region with 55% of their total land area being farmland This is followed by York Region with 41% of their lands being farmland Peel Region with 34% and Halton Region with 41%. Toronto's remaining farmland is completely within Rouge Park in the Rouge Valley the average size of the farm in the GTA (74 hectares (183 acres)) is much lower than the farms in the rest of Ontario (averaging 233 acres (0.94 km2)) This has been attributed to the shift of farm types in the GTA from the traditional livestock and cash crop farms (requiring an extensive land base) towards more intensive enterprises including greenhouse floriculture nursery vegetable fruit sheep and goats The most numerous farms types in the GTA are miscellaneous specialty farms (including horse and pony sheep and lamb and other livestock specialty) followed by cattle grain and oilseed dairy and field crop farms. Although the output of dairy production has dropped with farms from within the GTA dairy has remained the most productive sector in the agricultural industry by annual gross farm receipts. Despite the decreased amount of farmland around the region farm capital value increased from $5.2 billion in 1996 to $6.1 billion in 2001 making the average farm capital value in the GTA continued to be the highest in the province Infrastructure.
