With an update from CK News Today dot CA, I'm Tamara Thornton. This news is brought to you by Automotion 505 Richmond Street in Shadow. One of Dresden's biggest employers may be shutting down. Canagra has confirmed to CK News Today that next year it plans to either close its tomato plant or sell it.
The company claims to be in discussions with Highbury Canco in Leamington. Jim Brackett, the president of the Kent Federation of Agriculture, doesn't see why Canagra won't sell since they've already admitted that it'll outright close the plant if needed. Canagra might say no, we won't sell for that. But other than that, they don't know.
Canagra, which has been operating in Dresden for nearly 80 years, has not said why it's cutting ties with the area. What started as a personal project to navigate mental wellness has become a resource to help others. Chatham-Kent Health Alliance has announced that a Mental Health Support Activity book will be provided to every patient admitted to the Inpatient Mental Health Unit.
