Description
Domtars Maniwaki Sawmill: Uncertainty Persists as Sale Considered
Domtar is contemplating selling its Maniwaki, Quebec sawmill, following repeated temporary shutdowns since late 2024. The mill, acquired from Resolute Forest Products in 2023, has been impacted by challenging lumber markets and U.S. tariffs, leading to a September 2025 closure announcement. Workers and their union representatives are grappling with the uncertainty, as brief reopenings have not alleviated their concerns. Domtar recently informed staff and local officials that no quick recovery is expected, with a potential sale to a local buyer being considered for stability.
