The Placentia Area Blog: Gloomy News
http://placentiablog.blogspot.com/2008/02/gloomy-news.html
Wednesday, February 13, 2008. INCO's test plant in Argentia is closing in June. 130 jobs will disappear from the area. And not a sod turned in Long Harbour, which isn't due to start for another 3 years. It's gloomy news. Placentia has lost 1,617 people from 1991 to 2006. Many businesses have closed, and I've heard rumours more will soon be shutting. Personally, I find it hard not to be morose at the news. Posted by Placentia Blog. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Thursday, February 28, 2008. Last week, you'll recall the we had some savage wind that blew the roof off the mall. Tom O'Keefe was good enough to send in some photos of wind damage in the area.
