Heavy equipment to be showcased at weekend Expo

Its going to be a BIG weekend at the CN centre starting on Friday.

This, as the Canada North Resources Expo is in town. With six acres of indoor and outdoor exhibits focused on the equipment and features needed for forestry, heavy construction and mining industries.

Event Manager Mark Cusack says it will be an important event for contractors and industry professionals among others:

“So if there are people out there who are looking to get into a new career, or maybe find a job in the forestry, construction or the trucking industry – this is the place to come this weekend because everybody has their human resource people in their booths and they are looking for workers”

The biennial event looks to repeat the success of 2013, in which 9,000 thousand people came through the doors, and Cusack says he expects this years crowds to surpass 10,000.
