Jan 07, 2011. /Lesprom Network/. The Twin Rivers Paper Company in Edmundston, New Brunwick, received $21 million under the Canadian Government’s Pulp and Paper Green Transformation Program, as ForestTalk reported. The mill plans to use the investment for upgrades that will improve the mill’s environmental performance while producing enough thermal energy to heat more than 1,200 homes. The federal government has labelled this investment as one to “protect jobs in Canada’s forest industry”. “With today’s announcement, our Government is continuing to implement our plan to support Canada’s forest sector and the Canadians who depend on it,” said Christian Paradis, Minister of Natural Resources. “The Government’s investments are continuing our action to help our forest sector expand market opportunities for Canadian forest products, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and help protect the jobs of the families who depend on our forest sector for their livelihood.”
