New industry group forming in Quebec

A new industry group for the Quebec plastics industry is planning its initial meeting at the Hôtel Universelle, Drummondville Que., on Wednesday, April 9, from 1.00 pm to 6.00 pm. A faction of processors broke away from the Quebec section of the Canadian Plastics Industry Association at the start of the year, complaining that progress towards autonomy was not happening fast enough. The group is coordinated by Bernard Poitras, president of Plastiques Micron. bpoitras@plastiquemicron.com
