Tolko mill workers forced to make tough decisions in wake of indefinite mill shutdown in Kelowna
Description
October 15, 2019
It's been a month now since the Tolko mill in Kelowna announced it is shutting down indefinitely and tonight there's no sign of operations getting back up and running anytime soon. The shutdown has left dozens of workers in limbo, many having to make some tough life decisions. As Klaudia Van Emmerik reports, "not knowing" what's to come is perhaps the most difficult of all.
