The man getting things done for Doug Ford in the north

“One of our first orders of business,” Greg reports, was the signing of the “Watay Power Connection, farther west of the Ring of Fire,” a transmission project connecting 24 First Nations in northwestern Ontario to a provincial grid. Near the small town of Geraldton, north of Thunder Bay, he continues, Greenstone Gold built their own gas-fired plant to generate electricity, “not just for the gold mine, but for the surrounding communities.” As of January, he adds, “the Greenstone transmission line is going to fortify the electrification all the way up to Aroland First Nation.”
