The import of bleached and clay coated kraft paper and paperboard weighing 150 g/m² or less to Canada has been projected to steadily increase from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, the actual import value was not explicitly stated, but given that the data from 2024 onward is forecasted, we observe a year-on-year increase of approximately 1.7% annually.

Future trends to watch:
