Quebec — Following a tumultuous month at Mont-Sainte-Anne, the ownership team at a competitor is making a compelling offer to buy the ski resort. However, they have problems to deal with closer to home.
La Soleil reports that there’s a possibility of a workers’ strike at Le Massif in Quebec beginning in early 2026. The ski resort reportedly sent an updated offer to the union representing workers at Le Massif last week. However, the union viewed this offer as a non-starter. If no deal is reached, the strike could commence on January 2nd.
In response, Le Massif has created an FAQ page regarding the potential strike. Here’s what the ski resort said on the strike’s potential impact on operations:
“We will do everything we can to maintain a high-quality service and minimize the impact on the customer experience and safety. However, some operations may be adjusted depending on the capacity of our management staff to carry out the activities.”

The news comes as ownership at Le Massif has reiterated its interest in Mont-Sainte-Anne. That Quebec ski resort, which is run by the Resorts of the Canadian Rockies (RCR), is under fire for having to delay the opening of four lifts due to an electrical issue. The province is pondering whether to continue the partnership or end RCR’s lease.
The Quebec Mountains Ski Company has also expressed interest in Mont-Sainte-Anne. This group operates Mont Edouard, Mont Grand-Fonds, Mont Lac-Vert, and Massif du Sud. According to Le Charlevoisien, the group intends to operate ten ski resorts in the province within the next five years.
While Le Massif is a world-class ski resort, this potential strike could make Quebec wary of handing over the keys to it.
