Amazon Canada will close one fulfillment center, two sortation centers, three delivery stations, and one AMXL (extra large) delivery station co-located with a sortation center.

Here are the locations:

• YUL2 -Amazon Warehouse at 3000 Rue Louis A Amos, Lachine.
• YUL5 – Amazon Sorting Center, 5799 Rte de l’Aéroport, Saint-Hubert.
• DXT4 Amazon, 5555 Rue Ernest-Cormier, Laval

Amazon Canada opened its first Quebec warehouse in Lachine in 2020. In spring 2024, more than 200 employees unionized in a warehouse in Laval.

An Amazon spokesperson said Wednesday that the decision to close its Quebec warehouses “was not taken lightly” and denied it was linked to employee unionization.
