| Description | The mayor of the northwestern Ontario city of Kenora thinks it might be time for the community to say goodbye to Ontario and join up with Manitoba.
A grassroots movement to separate from Ontario has been underway in Kenora for years, but Mayor Dave Canfield says recent news that Abitibi Consolidated will close a mill in the community may be the last straw.
The pulp and paper company cited Ontario's high energy costs as one of its reasons for closing the mill. The closure means as many as 360 people will lose their jobs. |
