Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper chose Western’s Collider Centre for Technology Commercialization in the Advanced Manufacturing Park Monday afternoon as a backdrop for a $5.8 billion announcement of new infrastructure spending across the country, including projects here in London. After the announcement, the Prime Minister also took the opportunity to tour the WindEEE Research Institute, joined by, from left, Ed Holder, London West MP; Horia Hangan, Engineering professor and WindEEE director; Joe Preston, Elgin-Middlesex-London MP; Susan Truppe, London North Centre MP; and Amit Chakma, Western president.
