Thunder Bay Wood

The McGuinty Government is providing over 1-million dollars in funding and more then 3.8-million dollars in loan guarantees to support a new Wood Products Factory in Thunder Bay.

Canadian Company Global Sticks will build a state-of-the-art factory to create sticks used for ice cream bars, popsicles, corn dogs and tongue depressors.

Construction is expected to begin next month and will be completed in January.

The Mill will employee roughly 75-people.
