You’re invited!
Join us at the former Abitibi Paper Mill site in Iroquois Falls to celebrate the launch of Abitibi Connex, a new multimodal logistics hub supporting Ontario’s near- and far-north regions.
We welcome community members, project partners, government officials, First Nations leaders and community, and media to take part in this milestone day.
Recently selected by Pomerleau to support their $1.8B healthcare construction project in Moosonee and Moose Factory, Abitibi Connex is helping to improve health, wealth, and infrastructure in the north.
Come see how local collaboration is shaping Canada’s northern communities and Arctic future!
