CHILLIWACK, BC — Ledcor Group is closing down its Chilliwack Cant Mill next month. “Following extensive analysis of its forestry operating footprint and the long-term economic outlook of fibre supply, Ledcor has made the difficult decision to permanently close down our Forestry group which includes the Chilliwack Cant Mill facility, biomass and trucking operations,” said Ledcor president Don Quan. The cant mill, which had its grand opening in 2013, transformed logs into chips, cants and biomass. Ledcor officials say the decision to shutter the mill was “not made lightly” and it could impact up to 100 workers in the Forestry group. …In recent years, several sawmills have permanently closed in British Columbia due to many factors including unfavourable economic conditions, changes in legislation, challenges in the log supply market. “All of this has had a material impact on our facility’s ability to operate competitively and has resulted in it being financially unsustainable.
