ELECTRONICS AND
TECHNOLOGY.

Over $500 million will be invested to make
Canada’s rail system one of the most.

Canadian manufacturers will supply

trolled signal systems
and hot box detector

In 1984 alone, nearly 5 million ties will be
‘ordered from Canadian lumber suppliers.
This, and other huge orders, along with
additional work in wood treatment plants, |
will mean more jobs for Canadian lumber
‘industry workers.

Millions of tonnes of steeE will be supplied
