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
Moosonee is the railhead on James Bay of the Ontario Northland Railway where goods are transferred to barges and aircraft for transport to more northerly communities. Moosonee is not particularly far north (51°N) but is isolated due to its lack of road access to the rest of Ontario.
The 2006 Canadian census showed a population of 2006 people.
More than 80% of the population are native Cree. The main language is English with Cree as a second language. There is a small French population.
Moosonee is not connected to the road system in Ontario and is accessible by rail through Ontario Northland in Cochrane Ontario. Scheduled air service is provided by Air Creebec based in Timmins. There are several small charter air companies based in Moosonee.
Northern College's Moosonee campus provides some postsecondary programs. Over the years the Town of Moosonee Recreation Department has expanded to include a variety of services. The Recreation Centre located on the old air base was built in 1962 for the Canadian Forces Station (CFS) Air Base and in 1975 the Town of Moosonee (formerly the Moosonee Development Area Board) bought the building, which houses the swimming pool, gymnasium, weight room, and bowling alley. The Moosonee Community Centre was constructed in 1984. This building is a multi-purpose facility that houses the Arena, Curling Rink, and Community Hall. There are several users and uses for each of the facilities within the Community Centre. The Moosonee Curling Club has three (3) sheets of ice and a lounge area that is rented for various functions. There are also 5 dart boards located in the curling club lounge and a canteen. During the curling season the curling club is rented for bonspiels and recreational curling. The lounge is also rented year round for dances, meetings, dinners, and so forth.
