Strikes in Canada’s newsprint industry have halted about 250000 tons of production this year, with Abitibi Paper Ltd and CIP mills among those affected. Rail disruption is minor, but US and Canadian newspapers face edition suspensions as wage disputes persist. Most mills aim to meet high fall demand, yet current output may not recover this year.
