May 5, 2017 – In just over three weeks, one of the region’s most popular heavy equipment trade shows returns to the CN Centre. Taking place May 26 and 27, the Canada North Resources Expo is a showcase of the leading companies and products that are part of Northern Canada’s varied resources sectors.

This massive biennial event focuses on “the equipment to get the jobs done” and features four acres of indoor and outdoor space with tons of big iron, including equipment, machinery, products and technology geared to forestry, heavy construction, and major resources infrastructure.

“This year marks the third edition of Canada North Resources Expo, and we’re thrilled to be returning to Prince George,” said Mark Cusack, national show manager. “Over the last number of years, this show has seen significant growth and support from the community. We’ve got a great lineup of exhibitors and are excited to welcome those involved in any aspect of the region’s resources sectors.”

On Saturday, May 27, the show will celebrate the future of the industry with Family Day, and a chance for visitors to give back. Simply register one person for the show, give a donation to the Salvation Army Food Bank, and the whole family can attend the show. This offer applies on May 27 only.
