Did you know conventions, conferences, and meetings bolster Thunder Bay’s economy by bringing in new dollars? Even board meetings can have a big impact. Every meeting or event creates work in the service industry, brings guests to our hotels, visitors to restaurants, shops and attractions and supports our pandemic recovery. The result of this new, non-local money injected into Thunder Bay’s economy is substantial.
