Anyway, that's just hearsay, so it could be bogus. Although the source is someone who would reasonably have access to company management. But I also understand why they wouldn't put "the French requirements were a factor in us pulling this product" in the press release even if it's true. The shipping thing is probably a bigger factor and is less controversial so of course you'd lead with that.

Personally, as long as Scotties Supreme are still available I'm good.
It certainly does seem odd that after a Global Pandemic where most of the world was sick for a couple years that they're not making 'enough profit' off of Kleenex?

I mean, between COVID, allergies and most of Canada being on fire I'd have thought Kleenex was making a killing just off me alone.
