Alan Martin of Moonstone, who runs accounting businesses in Elmvale and Penetanguishene, has represented Ontario for the past two and a half years on the National Capital Commission, which is made up of Commissioners from all provinces and territories of Canada.

The N.C.C., now a Crown Corporation of the Federal Government, has existed in one form or another since 1896.

The development of the 'green - belt' and of the Gatineau Park are part of Hebert's outline of growth, said Martin. The N.C.C. oversees all new construction and locations of all new government buildings in the Ottawa- Hull area, Martin added.
