Cornwall Ontario — Ontario’s Premier Kathleen Wynne hosted a jobs round-table today at SigmaPoint Technologies, a manufacturing services company based in Cornwall.

“We are committed to helping local economies grow. That’s why we are working with businesses  labour and education partners in Cornwall and beyond to ensure that our people have the right skills for the global economy”, says Wynne.

The province has provided $3.5 million in funding to the Cornwall area through the Eastern Ontario Development Fund, and it is estimated that funding has helped retain more than 700 jobs.

After the round table, Wynne was given a tour of SigmaPoint Technologies, and then she answered questions in a media scrum.

Reporter Jason Setnyk had the opportunity to ask three questions to Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne. The questions and her answers will be published in this Friday’s print edition of the Seeker.
