TERRACE BAY, Ontario – With the surprise announcement of Aditya Birla Group shutting down AV Terrace Bay Pulp Mill indefinitely, District Six of the Steelworkers Union are stating that they will be assisting their members in any way they can. …Cody JG Alexander, Staff Representative for District Six, said: “this announcement puts forward a very unfortunate situation for our members and the entire community.
