I'm here today because I believe that this is the kind of company that we need to support
and celebrate. This is an organization that has gone from
11 employees to 24, and supplying not just aerospace and automotive in Ontario, but internationally
as well. The Eastern Ontario Development Fund is designed to support this kind of success.
So we're investing $80 000 here at Sciens and that will allow the support of 10 jobs
and allow for the expansion of the kind of manufacturing that we need to do more of here
in Ontario. We have the skill, we have the education system,
we have the ability here in Ontario to do this kind of manufacturing. I'm proud of our
government's role in being able to invest in this industry, and this is the kind of
work I want us to continue to be able to do in Ontario.
We need to make sure that our education system prepares people for the jobs that are available
in Ontario. So that's the interconnectedness of the different paths and initiatives that
we have in place. So I'm very happy to be here and proud to be able to support an organization
like Sciens.
