A few weeks ago I had an assignment for the National Post to photograph an entrepreneur who had created a new delivery option for individuals when they order a product on-line.  The picture finally ran earlier this week so I can post it here.  You can read about the company in the Winnipeg Free Press through this link.  It was also published in the Financial Post. http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/local/outside-the-box-delivery-139793983.html?device=mobile

Electro Motive – CLOSED.

Just over one month after locking its employee’s out, Caterpillar announced on Friday that it would be closing the Electro Motive facility in London and moving the 450 jobs to Muncie Indiana. One day after the announcement stunned the Union, city and workers, workers returned to the picket line.  Ken Lewenza, president of Canadian Auto Workers has indicated that the workers will continue to picket the facility until a fair and equitable severance package can be negotiated. Those talks begin on Tuesday February 7, 2012. You can see more images here: http://spowart.photoshelter.com/gallery/EMC-CLOSED/G0000Ph6_Bz5GxlQ/

It took overtime for the London Lightning to defeat the Oshawa Power on Sunday at the JLC. If the close game did not have fans on the edge of their seats, seeing Gabe Freeman on crutches in the second half of the game after rolling his ankle surely would have. Both Freeman and Shawn Daniels are listed day to day, Freeman for the rolled ankle and Daniels for a possible concussion.
