Burk's Falls is one of six northern communities getting a mobile Service Ontario Centre.
The centre will allow you to get your driver's licence, licence plates, health card, Ontario Photo Card, birth certificate, and other documents and services provided by the Government of Ontario.

"Improving access to important government services in small towns and rural communities is a top priority," says Graydon Smith, MPP Parry Sound—Muskoka, "We are closing the gap in service delivery in Ontario's smaller, more remote communities. I am pleased mobile service centres will be helping constituents across Parry Sound—Muskoka with important services, such as renewing health cards and driver’s licences."
