When paper is a family affair

The fascinating “GENERATIONS” exhibition has just opened at the BORÉALIS Centre in Trois-Rivières and will be running until September 30, 2013.  It tells the history of the Canadian paper industry through the accounts of ten families who helped to build that industry.

This is a unique opportunity to hear inspiring accounts, including that by Mr. Joseph Kruger II, current Chairman and CEO of Kruger Inc., whose grandfather, Joseph Kruger I, founded the company in Montréal in 1904.

Located in a former filtration plant on the Saint-Maurice River, BORÉALIS provides an exceptional setting in which families can learn about the paper industry’s history and that of the Trois-Rivières region.
