Kapuskasing mayor works with federal and provincial governments to keep Kap Paper open

The federal government will discuss solutions for the northeastern forest industry with the province, potentially keeping Kap Paper open. This comes after lobbying efforts by Kapuskasing Mayor Dave Plourde, as the mill faces closure due to U.S. tariffs. The province previously provided a $6-million loan extension. The federal government's agreement to meet is seen as a positive step, though more support is needed for the industry and mills like Kap Paper.
