It is yet to be determined whether all the Point Tupper, Nova Scotia mill’s creditors will be reimbursed. But the Chronicle-Herald reported July 17 that Sampson McDougall of Sydney will receive $42,500 and Burchells LLP of Halifax $30,000.
The law firms were involved in the establishment of a woodsmen’s reserve fund set up after the mill requested creditor protection.
Private woodlot owners retained Sampson McDougall and the Northeastern Pulp Truckers Association and the Northeast Contractors Association employed Burchells.
