Northern NB Mayors have arrived in #Fredericton for an update on the situation in Belledune. @CTVAtlantic #nbpoli

Meeting on Belledune should be wrapping up soon and we’ll get an update after 3. #nbpoli

Minister Holder says the meeting was productive-
Denis Caron will be taking on the transition adjustment committee.

One group will be tasked with training and working with the workers to transition into different opportunities. The other will be about finding economic opportunities in the region. #nbpoli

The province is working on assessing the economic impact, talking to businesses, people on the ground, and see how much is lost. #nbpoli

Wow. The province says they believe, from research they’ve been doing over the course of this week, 800 indirect jobs are affected by this shutdown. So total workers impacted 1200+. #nbpoli
