Howard Hampton Demanding Action for Forestry

Kenora-Rainy River MPP Howard Hampton says everyone in Northwestern Ontario should be concerned with the closing of Abitibi-Bowater’s 2-paper machines at its Thunder Bay mill.
Last week’s announcement put more than 325 people out of work.
Hampton predicts further closures in the future.
Hampton says unless the situation changes, Ontario could be left with only 1 or 2-mills.
He stresses the Government must take action, including the availability of affordable power to remain competitive.
