Check w/ Ontario Agriculture, I bet they have a bulletin of recomendations that would help get you on the right track. Doug McRory retired this last year, but the new guy is quite capable.
Look up Ontario Beekeepers Association. That's a group that you aughtto belong to. Or at least get to know.
I have The Bee Girls calendar on my wall. Those ladies, and guys, are a great group. Cheerful, intelligent positive communicators of the best in canadian beekeeping knowledge and current research.
