Financial terms were not disclosed.<\/p>\n<p>The Fort St. John sawmill was announced for closure in September 2024, with the decision affecting around 220 jobs. Production at the site ended later that year.<\/p>\n<p>Rocky Mountain Salvage operates in the scrap metal and recycling sector, with activities in Hinton and Edson, Alberta. Canfor said the buyer is expected to repurpose the site and provide some economic value to the region.<\/p>\n<p>The sale marks another step in the restructuring of Canfor\u2019s British Columbia footprint, following a series of mill closures and curtailments linked to weak lumber markets, high operating costs, fibre constraints and ongoing pressure from US softwood lumber duties.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":98888,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"Default","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5204],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-98887","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-daily-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.9 -
