Crofton, 不列颠哥伦比亚

Domtar will begin laying off 350 workers at its Crofton mill starting February 3, 2026. The union is requesting federal support from a $50-million softwood lumber worker assistance fund to provide early retirement options for affected employees.

Domtar announced the permanent closure of its pulp mill in Crofton, British Columbia, resulting in 350 workers being laid off effective February 2026. The company cited lack of access to economically viable wood fibre as the primary reason for the closure.
