Premier Brian Pallister is quickly abandoning a play-nice posture with Ottawa as his list of issues with the federal government grows. Pallister said the three other locations — in Ontario and Quebec — are well on their way, but Manitoba's factory is nowhere near started. Despite what Pallister said today, it does appear there has been some movement on the project in Winnipeg. Premier Brian Pallister called the decision "a real setback to the province of Manitoba" and said he was very concerned. Pallister said while he is disappointed by the Hornets purchase, he hopes the Factory of the Future initiative has not been dropped.
