Since 2010, Paper Excellence has received hundreds of millions of dollars in federal and provincial loans and subsidies, promising revitalization and jobs in some economically hard-hit communities. But it ultimately closed numerous mills — including in Powell River and Mackenzie, B.C. Espanola, Ont., and Pictou, N.S. The company currently owns more than 30 mills in Canada, the United States, Brazil and France Nothing can be done. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I agree… But then all of the provincial premiers would whine about “muh jurisdiction!” Look at what happened with Alberta and the recent changes to nationalized subsidies for certain common medications. Our provincial governments are actively inhibiting the system from getting better.
