Gordon McKinnon Tours Finland Tractor Factory Visit
Gordon McKinnon, Manitoba’s Glenboro representative, joined 22 other Canadians on a Finland trip to tour the Valtra Tractor Factory and the tractor engine plant. The group traveled from Winnipeg via Montreal and Amsterdam to Helsinki, noting Finland’s rocky landscapes, small farms, and milder coastal climate. He remarked on the country’s non Americanized scene and scarce fast food outlets, as the Glenboro Gazette notes a publication pause on August 1 and 8 with next issue August 15.
