Bruce Power Announcement Excites Kincardine Mayor

Kincardine Mayor Anne Eadie was present at Bruce County Council when the huge Bruce Power announcement was made on Thursday.

Bruce Power announced a refurbishment project at Bruce Nuclear which will refurbish 6 of the reactor units and add onto the plant.   The project will create a major spike in jobs for the region as well as the possibility of major economic growth. The project is a multi-billion dollar initiative.

Eadie says the announcement was "extremely exciting for the residents of Kincardine and all of Bruce County." She offered congratulations to Bruce Power's Duncan Hawthorne and all of Bruce Power for their efforts in getting the project moving forward, and added that "the benefits and jobs created are monumental, and this ensures economic growth and properity in this region for decades to come."

Eadie was in attendance to watch the re-election of Bruce County Council Warden Mitch Twolan, who will serve his second term at that post. Twolan is also the mayor of Huron-Kinloss, and also stated he was "very excited and thrilled with the Bruce Power announcement."
