Letter: Not quite a wasteland

Published 15 December 2015

From Richard Bedard

Your Field Notes from SNOLAB – the Sudbury Neutrino Detector – (25 April, p 14) located it in the “frozen Canadian wasteland”. I was born in the city of Sudbury. Its population of 100,000 has a university and tourist attractions such as Science North… and the Big Nickel, a large replica of Canada’s five cent piece. I must, however, admit that I left.
