This was the Aberfoyle Spring plant, which is what it was sometimes called (but isn't mentioned in the Narwhal article).

Also, despite the title, the company doesn't say that the plant is closing - the company is selling it. And since it's already changed hands multiple times, I don't see why the plant would actually close. The new owner will just get a new license from our "business friendly" provincial government.

Edit: this is why I can't take the Tyee, Narwhal, Rabble, and all these off-brand journalism sites seriously

Confusing headline. Nestlé is still called "Nestlé". They sold the plant in 2021, I guess that is what is meant by "formerly Nestlé".

Hopefully the one in BC gets closes also

Wait, when did they switch names? First I've heard of it, but it makes sense to negate their terrible rep. Edit: 2021, according to the article. I didn't think they'd mention it.

congratulations, that's good news.

I’m waiting for the catch. They already name washed themselves; I expect them to be exploiting some new market that isn’t aware of who they are and what they do.
