Xinyi Canada Glass to bring in 300 jobs to the city of Stratford

The resulting answers from those questions is expected to be presented today but a vote isn’t planned during the meeting. The meeting is scheduled to take place at 3 o’clock today.

The plant which is expected to bring 300 jobs to the city and generate 4.5 million dollars of tax revenue per year. 24 percent would go to the Township of Perth South.
