They’re not pulling out, they’re just removing the brand from the Canadian market… which makes sense, because Kleenex lost its trade mark protection in Canada. So they’re using the Scotties trade name instead (same company).

    Oh ok, found this other article that had more details but it suggests Scotties is a different brand?
