Councillor Furious Over Tornado Shocker
One city councillor is furious over the news that Tornado Medical Systems has closed up its offices in Thunder Bay. The medical imaging company announced it was setting up shop in the city in 2009 and was given substantial taxpayers dollars to build new offices in the Whelan Building. Councillor Ken Boshcoff says "this warrants a full investigation by council into the process in giving generous grants." He says there were promises of up to 300 jobs , but they closed with under 10.
