Factory in Kirkland Lake is set to be operational by July 1 next year
Construction on a $20 million modular housing factory is underway in Kirkland Lake.
Keepers of the Circle, operated by the Temiskaming Native Women’s Support Group, is building a 24,000 square foot factory in hopes of bringing more sustainable and durable homes to First Nations communities in northern Ontario.
“Our goal is that our local Indigenous communities in the north benefit from these homes. We know a lot of communities are experiencing overcrowding, they’re experiencing mould issues because of continuous flooding of their homes,” said Bertha Cormier, executive director of Keepers of the Circle.
