Canada Fibers Files Breach of Contract Claim against City of Hamilton


TORONTO, Aug. 21, 2018 /CNW/ - Canada Fibers Ltd. (CFL or the Company) today announced that it has filed a statement of claim with the Superior Court of Ontario asserting damages arising from breach of contract by the City of Hamilton. CFL's decision to file the claim follows over 12 months of negotiations with Hamilton staff that culminated in a recommendation by the City's staff proposing measures to resolve the breach and end the dispute. Unfortunately, Hamilton City Council has rejected the compromise recommended by staff and made it necessary for CFL to seek a remedy in the courts.

The Company will not be making any further statements concerning the action while it is being heard by the Superior Court.
