The Canadian Woodlands Forum will host its Spring Meeting in Moncton, featuring a presentation by Anthony Robinson, owner, publisher and CEO of Forestnet Media, the company behind Logging & Sawmilling Journal and TimberWest Magazine. Robinson’s talk — “Canadian Forestry Today: Reality, Resilience, and the Road Ahead” — will draw on more than a decade covering the forest sector across North America, from logging operations and sawmills to industry events and conversations with sector leaders. His presentation will examine intensifying competition among equipment manufacturers, consolidation among mill technology and engineering firms, and the widening gap between industry realities and government and advocacy structures. Robinson will also explore why some companies continue to invest despite challenging market cycles, and highlight emerging trends in innovation, people-first leadership, and the growing importance of effective industry storytelling.
