Dark days for Hamilton .....

There are tough times ahead for the city of Hamilton, or Steel City as it likes to be called.
"Temporary closures" and lay-offs in its two non-Canadian owned steel manufacturing plants have darkened many people's thoughts.
I hope for better times for them, and knowing their resilience and determination, I know better times will happen.
