Concern over AbitibiBowater's plan to sell off Northern Ontario dams

The Ontario NDP Party raised the issue of AbitibiBowater's desire to sell off its dams in Northern Ontario in the legislature today.

NDP members told the legislature that the dams provide cheap power, which helps to keep the mills in Thunder Bay, Fort Frances, and Iroquois Falls in operation.

Those same NDP members warned the legislature that if the government permits the sale it would put the jobs of 2,000 workers at risk.
