One of North America's largest sugar refiners, SucroCan, hopes to have a multi-million dollar plant online by 2025 producing a whopping million tonnes annually.
Tracey Muzzolini, co-owner of Christie's Bakery, said she has stocked up enough sugar for the holidays, but after Christmas she will need to re-evaluate where they stand.
A strike at a sugar refinery in B.C. is causing a shortage of the sweet staple across Western Canada, and leaving a bitter taste for some at-home bakers and businesses in Saskatoon.
