Summary

Prior to COVID-19, the Ministry of Heritage, Sport, Tourism and Culture Industries’ (MHSTCI) partners delivered a spectacular double bottom line: an economic bottom line and a social one. The economic bottom line translated into billions in economic activity and the employment of hundreds of thousands of people in every single community across the province.

Tourism, the arts and creative industries, museums and public libraries, amateur sport and recreation activities were hit first and hit hardest by the pandemic, and it is going to take the longest for these sectors to recover. The Ministry acted quickly to protect Ontario’s tourism, culture, heritage and sport sectors by taking immediate steps such as adapting its programs to expedite funding in a nimble and responsive way to support businesses and organizations as they adapt to a new way-of-life and a new way of doing business during the pandemic.

The Ministry continues to engage with its partners and adapt its existing programs and create new ones to support businesses and stakeholders, as well as local communities. When the timing is right, countries and communities will start to re-open and Ontario needs to be ready to rebuild and assist the Ministry’s sectors in their short-, medium-, and long-term recovery.

Looking towards the future, the government is transforming Ontario Place into a world class, year-round destination that will attract local, provincial and international visitors — and could include exciting sport and entertainment landmarks, public spaces and parks, recreational facilities and retail. As Ontario Place marks its 50th anniversary, it will be central to the recovery of heritage, culture, recreation and tourism for all Ontarians post pandemic – both as a tourism destination but also as a display of our strong cultural identity in Ontario.

The Ministry is responsible for leading the delivery of Ontario’s highest honours and awards on behalf of the government through the Ontario Honours and Awards Secretariat.

The Ministry’s continued work will help generate economic activity, create jobs, and boost local economies by creating an environment where businesses and their employees can rebuild and thrive.

Investments in ministry programs drive economic growth in communities across the province, provide jobs and opportunities for people and help Ontario's communities thrive and succeed by showcasing their strengths to the world. These investments ensure that the Ministry remains a powerhouse that fuels a double bottom line, both the financial bottom line and the equally important bottom line of the province's cultural fabric and identity.
