INCO's test plant in Argentia is closing in June.
130 jobs will disappear from the area.
And not a sod turned in Long Harbour, which isn't due to start for another 3 years.
It's gloomy news. Placentia has lost 1,617 people from 1991 to 2006. Many businesses have closed, and I've heard rumours more will soon be shutting.
Personally, I find it hard not to be morose at the news.
