Our forests make British Columbia one of the best places to live. They have shaped our past and will continue to define our opportunities, no matter where you live in the province. Forestry is – and will remain – a foundation of B.C.’s economy. The future of forestry increasingly is about managing for resilience, climate change and multiple values. This includes the contribution of old forests, cultural values, and products derived through getting the most out of every tree harvested, to create maximum value and the greatest number of jobs. …The Forest Enhancement Society of BC is a proven partner in delivering projects on the ground that benefit communities, workers, and the health of our forests. That’s why we are further supporting its work with $50 million over two years to expand funding for projects that increase access to fibre, reduce emissions from slash pile burning and reduce the risk to people from wildfire.
