YOUR PREMIER DESTINATION FOR HOT TUBS & SAUNAS
Just like The Tragically Hip’s late frontman of 33 years, Gord Downie, Brad Bonner’s connection to Indigenous issues is deeply rooted in his business ethics. While the legacy of Canadian natives bleeds through in the music of The Hip, so does Bonner’s heritage in his day-to-day dealings with Canadians who are looking for backyard leisure products like hot tubs and saunas. As the owner of Northern Leisure Hot Tubs Napanee, that also offers Northern Leisure saunas, Bonner calls upon some of the First Nation values his original New Brunswick family instilled in him, especially his grandmother, who was from Mohawk decent. After the family moved to the United States, they returned to Canada and settled in the Greater Napanee region of Ontario, which is named for Indigenous dialects meaning “much flour” or “by the water,” depending on the language version of the old river mill settlements. One thing that’s not lost in translation, is Bonner’s values that are deeply rooted in community. After earning a degree from Laurentian University in Sudbury, Bonner started his career as a 23-year-old human resources officer for an economic development firm that focuses on indigenous business owners. The First Nation established relationships with The Crown by way of treaties and these values continue today in Napanee. They are deeply rooted in community, supporting neighbors, family, friends, business owners and partnerships with cities within 30 minutes of the Northern Hot Tubs Napanee showroom to best serve the region. But you don’t have to be indigenous to trust Bonner and his staff, you just need to be in the market for a well-built, all-inclusive Canadian brand of hot tub or sauna and live near Napanee, Ontario.
RURAL BUT CENTRAL ONTARIO BACKYARD LEISURE LOCATION
The Northern Leisure Napanee showroom is designed to be a destination where you can get a feel for your backyard vision and the perfect way to display your hot tub or sauna. There you will find at least three hot tubs and three saunas – many wired so you can test out your future wellness experiences. If you are anywhere in Prince Edward County or reside in places like Belleville, Kingston or as far as Tyendinaga you have a first-hand leisure products partner in Bonner, who operates under the regional business name Bay of Quinte Leisure. Bonner grew up with hot tubs and saunas as part of his lifestyle. He loved spending summers with friends, camping and hiking because they seemed to be happy and joyful people, a far cry from the human resources world he began in. Bonner chose Northern Leisure through mutual wellness connections who shared a love for the backyard and outdoors. This business venture is the culmination of planning for a year to get a territory for a wellness brand he could believe in – Canada’s Northern Leisure. Bonner said he likes the Northern Leisure pricing strategy and packages with all-inclusive features under one umbrella product line. “I’m sold on the process,” he said. “Northern Leisure is the fastest growing hot tub brand in Canada. I have a lot of confidence. So, he invested in an easy to access warehouse location that is close to major highways that allows you to benefit from a True North health and wellness experience.
