Canfor announces closure of Northwood Pulp Mill

Canfor's decision to shut down the Northwood Pulp Mill in Prince George, British Columbia, will affect around 300 workers and reduce NBSK production by 300,000 tonnes annually. This move highlights the broader challenges facing the forestry and pulp industries, including environmental regulations and shifting market demands. The closure underscores the economic and social impacts on the local community and raises questions about the future of similar facilities amid growing sustainability pressures.
