Agreed. When most people (and not necessarily talking about you, CPN1) talk about 'good factory jobs', they're talking about skilled machinists, tool & die workers, etc. Those jobs don't exist anymore -- factory work is mostly shifting boxes these days. And a plant like Wrigley's will not be missed.
Given the level of unemployment in Toronto, any job will be missed. The tax revenues will also hurt, unless the site is soon redeveloped into another use.
