Swings named in honour of two fallen miners from Sudbury

The City of Greater Sudbury is installing new swings in memory of two miners who died on the job.

Jordan Fram and Jason Chenier were killed at Vale's Stobie Mine in 2011.

Vale paid a $1 million fine to the city for the tragedy.

City council faced public pressure to do something special with the money.

After consulting with the victims' families, the city has decided to purchase two swings for $26 thousand.

The swing for Fram will be placed in Ridecrest Park in New Sudbury, while a swing named after Chenier will be put in Jeanne D'Arc playgound in Hanmer.
