Fedeli urges Liberals to pursue rail contracts for ONTC

Nipissing MPP Vic Fedeli says the Liberal government continues to drop the ball on jobs at the ONTC.  Fedeli was reacting to news that 10 painters at Ontario Northland are losing their jobs because of lack of work at the refurbishment plant.  For months Fedeli has been telling the Liberals to go after rail tanker cars across Canada that need double-walls after the Lac-Megantic disaster.  He says with almost 100,000 such cars across Canada and a team already in place at the ONTC that can do the work, this is a no-brainer.
