Global Sticks has made layoffs

It appears Global Sticks could be in trouble.  Plant Manager Dan Jean confirmed that layoffs have been made but wouldn't confirm how many people have lost their jobs and why the cuts were made.  Thunder Bay Superior North PC Candidate Anthony Leblanc says this confirms the current wood allocation process is failing businesses.  Incumbent Forestry Minister Michael Gravelle says the government has and will continue to work towards getting Global Sticks the support it needs to be successful and NDP Candidate Steve Mantis says he isn't surprised.
