Bruce Power employees, the Power Workers Union and The Society of Energy Professionals have collectively raised more than $40,000 for Northern Ontario communities devastated by forest fires.

“Whenever there has been a need in the community, the province or around the world, our employees have been quick to jump in to help,” said Bruce Power CEO Duncan Hawthorne in an Aug. 3 statement.

Forest fires have threatened several First Nation communities in Northern Ontario, forcing the evacuation of thousands.

“Our members have demonstrated an enormous capacity for caring when it comes to helping people in need,” said Larry Alderdice, Chief Steward and Sector Representative for the Power Workers Union.
