Online retailer Amazon said Wednesday that it's closing all seven of its warehouses in the Canadian province of Quebec in the next two months. The e-commerce giant said the move would provide “even more savings to our customers over the long run.

E-commerce giant Amazon.com is exiting its operations in Quebec, leading to the loss of about 1,700 full-time jobs, a company spokesperson said on Wednesday.

Unions had gained a foothold in one of the company’s warehouses in the province, though Amazon would not say if there was a connection.
