Newsprint Mill: Financial Viability

Contract Negotiations Dept: "This is a difficult time for the former Tembec workers, their families and the buyout group who have worked so long to preserve the mill and the jobs that are critical to the town," Manitoba's Labour and Immigration Minister Jennifer Howard stated in a news release issued Monday, according to CBC. The mill has been idle since Sept. 1 when Tembec locked out about 250 workers during contract negotiations and a group that had been looking into purchasing Tembec's newsprint mill in Pine Falls, Man., has dropped its bid for the idle plant. "I commend the extensive efforts and diligence undertaken by the buyout group as it explored the financial viability of purchasing the mill from Tembec." As reported in the news.
