PG Chamber breaks down MMBC for business community

The Prince George Chamber of Commerce held an info session Tuesday for business owners offering clarity on Multi Material BC’s recycling program.

CEO Christie Ray says the Chamber hasn’t supported MMBC’s plan, over affects it would have on some industries in PG.

She says the program would cost the newspaper industry in BC $10 to 14 million and the effects of that slash will be felt here in PG.

Ray says the PG chamber is using connections through the BC Chamber of Commerce to ask the province to consider changing MMBC’s recycling program to lessen the strain on local business.
