All across Canada, theforest sector is dealingwith rising energy costs, astrong dollar, global com-petition, and reducedtimber supplies. AsCanada’s forest-basedindustries and economiesrise or fall, so too do thecommunities that exist

because of the forest and the work it provides tothousands of Canadians.

Change is bringing opportunity to forest-basedcommunities, where people with experience,skills and knowledge are the forest sector’s

greatest asset in changing times.
