What to know
Safe and Trusted Canada connects Canadian consumers and businesses. Our website is in English; use your browser’s translation feature to view it in another language. We are BBB accredited. See our BBB report
We create Information Only Profiles from publicly available business information. Business owners can manage their information through their own account or request removal. Consumers can search by business name, location, phone number, services and Trust Factors. City and Town listings identify communities served, while Trade Areas include surrounding communities. Every business can access any trade area in Canada. A contractor can access other trade areas, but may need a municipal license for those areas. A company that markets to other trade areas to draw consumers to its business location needs a municipal license only for its trade area. Trade areas include cities and towns. The number of city or town trade areas depends on the subscription type and whether the business purchases extra trade areas with Extended Visibility. The letters TA after a city or town name identify a trade area. For example, Saskatoon TA can include Saskatoon and the surrounding area. Some cities and towns just outside major centres are designated as separate Trade Areas because of their population, location, or because they serve a local population area.

Business details
Now with a landmass of 529 square kilometres and a year round population of 798 in the Canada 2006 Census, Kearney claims to be perhaps the "Biggest Little Town in Ontario," and maybe even Canada.
Kearney is known as a logging town with many sawmills and lumber camps.
Kearney is the gateway to Algonquin Park wilderness with three access points - one at Tim Lake, one at Magnetawan Lake and most popular, at Rain Lake. In the early years, the train took visitors right into the park, with many side trips available from there. Today the roads run right back into the park's three access points. Kearney is well known as a tourist centre, not only because of its proximity to Algonquin Park, but for its swimming, water sports, camping and fishing. Within the town boundaries, lakes such as Clam, Fisher, Beaver and Sand with their many cottages, resorts, and campgrounds are vacation destinations for many visitors. Bear, moose and deer hunting provides sport for hunters coming to the area. The Kearney Community Centre, which celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2000, houses the municipal offices, library, and seniors room and banquet facilities. The centre offers indoor activities during the weekdays such as card parties and special interest classes. Kearney also has a number of groups including the Royal Canadian Legion, the Lions Club, and various church and other groups. Annual events include the Blackfly Festival, Creative Changes Art Show, Sand Lake Regatta, Kearney Regatta, Kearney Lions Club Pancake Breakfast, Christmas Fun Fair and Craft Sale, the Kearney Dog Sled Races, and Sand Lake Thanksgiving Sunday Turkey Shoot. Visits can be made to the restored pioneer log church at Sand Lake as well as many other points of interest along the way. Kearney's history of logging also helped create the great trails for their dog sled races in the winter. The races have grown in popularity with both spectators and racers since its inception in 1995. The mushers can choose from a number of scenic trails used for four, six, and thirty mile races. In addition to the races, the weekend has a full roster of family events, including cross-country skiing and ice fishing.
Kearney is a great place to be. We hope you'll join us and see for yourself. We promise you won't be disappointed!
