Last night, TVOntario broadcast a great episode of The Shield, a documentary series about the history of Canadian Shield community.The episode was about Sudbury and included some good information on local business history. Matt Bray, a retired professor of history at Laurentian University, was interviewed about the history of nickel mining.
For more about the episode, see here.
Perhaps one day Vale Inco will open its archive to researchers so we can learn more about the history of this important industry.
