It looks like 2011 will bring with it a new construction project in northwestern Minnesota that has people talking about jobs. It's a canola oil plant which is expected to bring an estimated 200 construction jobs, and about 50 permanent jobs to the town of Hallock.

MPR's Cathy Wurzer talked with Minnesota Public Radio News reporter Dan Gunderson who spoke from our Moorhead bureau about that story and other news from that part of the state.
