Elliot Lake was founded as a mining community in 1956, and developed into one of the largest uranium centres in North America. With the changing markets and decreased demands for uranium, the mining industry no longer exists in our community. Due to the vision and creativity of the mining companies and municipal officers, Elliot Lake Retirement Living was founded, attracting seniors and retired persons to our community. |
