Renewed Hope For Idled Fort Frances Mill

The idled Resolute Forest Products Paper Mill in Fort Frances may have found a second life.

The facility was shut-down in 2014.

Municipal officials confirm Repap Resources Group is expressing interest in purchasing the shuttered facility.

The company suggests restarting the mill in 2019 and producing packaging grades.

In a release, Fort Frances Mayor June Caul says it would mean a return of 263 jobs.
