Hobbs Slams Government Over Smelter Decision
There is huge disappointment among city leaders to the decision by Cliffs Natural Resources to locate its Ring of Fire chromite smelter near Sudbury. No one is more upset than our Mayor Keith Hobbs who wasn't able to hide his outrage. He says not only did Thunder Bay get nothing but so did area First Nations. He says the government didn't bother to include our leaders in discussions with Cliffs on the smelter location.
