that more than 130 people had visited the mill by 3:00 p.m.with more tours still to take place.Smurfit Stone, which produces the highest quality bleached kraft pulp in the world, opened its mill Sunday to guests from both Quebec and Ontario.The tours, which started at 10 a.m., introduced the pulp-making process to visitors with a short video on the procedure.Viewing the video ahead of time proved to be beneficial as it was difficult to hear | 1 the tour guide over the noise of the \\ 1 machinery during the actual mill tour.The film described in a step-by-step process the procedure of producing the high quality pulp from wood.The first step involves transforming the wood which arrives as logs or chips and sorting it by species.Smurfit Stone uses a mixture of hardwood and softwood, to the specifications of the client, to achieve its high quality product.Eighty per cent of the product is comprised of hardwood and 20 per cent softwood.The softwood content makes the paper stronger as the softwood fibers are longer and give extra strength to the finished product.In the second step the chips as digested it.\" ¦ Therriault said that the job was not what she expected.\"I was disappointed,\" said Therriault.\"It was not very rewarding because of all the problems in the municipality.\" For example, conflicts over the bicycle trail issue and solar aquatics in Quyon have caused rifts between east and west councillors in the municipality.However, Therriault said that it was a learning experience.\"It really opened my eyes to the political world, \" said Therriault.#5 1
