Longlac Pulp & Paper Co. Ltd. eventually was purchased by Kimberly-Clark Ltd. By 2007, Buchanan owned the Mill in Longlac and therefore owned Pigeon and Glidalong. The mill shop was right beside the Russel Winchboat Pigeon and about two hundred feet from the Glidalong. Longlac boats included a 15' dozer boat named Longlac Junior, winch boats Alec, Glidalong, Grouse, Pigeon and Tauno, apparently only one warping tug Longlac Senior, and full sized tugs Lacalong and Tugalong. |
