Interest is growing in the purchase of the idled Terrace Bay mill, with a potential buyer proposing plans for either resuming pulp production or converting it for biofuel production. Ontario previously invested $3 million to heat the mill, which is currently unheated, and any deal may require government support. Mayor Paul Malashewski expressed frustration over the lack of communication from the potential buyer, while the Ontario government emphasized the need for a long-term plan before making operational decisions.
