About this listen
In February, Vale Base Metals announced the partial sale of a nickel mine in Thompson, Man., to three new partners.
The new ownership group says it will invest up to $280 million in operations and keep the mine running long-term. The new owners say they plan to double production in the next five years.
It's the latest development after years of uncertainty for the mine.
This week, we look back at Vale's history in Thompson, why the news has residents feeling hopeful and why Premier Wab Kinew says this is the latest chapter in the growing good news story of northern Manitoba's role in securing a brighter economic future for Manitoba.
