HFI Pyrotechnics joins Canada's Munitions Supply Program

Earlier on this month, we celebrated HFI Pyrotechnics Inc. and the recent agreement with the federal government that they are now part of Canada’s Munitions Supply Program (MSP) - a much deserved designation. They are the first company added to the MSP in 40 years! This adds jobs and helps boost the local economy in Prescott! The late MP Gord Brown would be very pleased to see HFI Pyrotechnics Inc. obtain inclusion in the MSP supply chain as he was one of the first to initially advocate their cause. I and MPP Steve Clark presented congratulatory scrolls to mark this momentous occasion. Mayor Pat Sayeau was also attending.
