They Said It: Ed Youdell, president, Fabricators & Manufacturers Association Intl.

Manufacturing Day has come and gone. Did your company open its doors to students, educators, and the community to share the story of modern manufacturing? In October 34 events were held in British Columbia and Ontario to celebrate the ingenuity and innovation of the manufacturing professionals who are driving the Canadian economy forward.

In fact, this year there were more than 1,600 events across North America attended by an estimated 50,000 people who, in many cases, were getting their first exposure to career opportunities and an introduction to the value manufacturing adds to their local communities. If you didn’t make it this year, please mark Oct. 2, 2015, on your calendar.
