BRP Inc. 表示，其魁北克三處工廠已解僱 120 多名工人和管理人員。

BRP Inc. says it has laid off more than 120 workers at three of its Quebec facilities.

BRP Inc. 表示，其魁北克三個工廠已解僱 120 多名員工。

A list of layoff notices received by Quebec's Employment Ministry shows the layoffs took place last month, hitting 60 employees in Montreal, 15 in Sherbrooke and 47 in Valcourt, where the company is headquartered.

魁北克就業部收到的裁員通知清單顯示，上個月發生了裁員，蒙特婁裁員60人，舍布魯克裁員15人，公司總部所在地瓦爾考特裁員47人。

The Ski-Doo maker said the current economic climate and lower consumer demand requires "sound management of expenses."

這家 Ski-Doo 製造商表示，當前的經濟狀況和較低的消費者需求需要「健全的費用管理」。

The cuts come after some 1,150 layoffs across North America earlier this year, but BRP says they are small in proportion to the company's 20,000-strong workforce across the globe.

今年早些時候，北美地區裁員約 1,150 人，但 BRP 表示，與該公司全球 20,000 名員工相比，裁員比例很小。

The move comes after a tough few quarters for BRP. In October it put its marine businesses up for sale as it looks to focus on powersports products and cut the cable to its money-losing boat brands.

此舉是在 BRP 經歷了艱難的幾個季度之後做出的。十月份，該公司將其船舶業務出售，因為該公司希望專注於動力運動產品，並切斷與其虧損的船舶品牌的聯繫。

The COVID-19 pandemic yielded a windfall for the outfit as North Americans turned to consumer products and outdoor recreation, but the subsequent inflation and higher interest rates have left buyers less eager.

隨著北美人轉向消費品和戶外休閒，COVID-19 大流行為該公司帶來了意外之財，但隨後的通貨膨脹和更高的利率讓買家不再那麼熱心。
