What's This About?
Canada’s forest sector has a central role to play in building the homes we need to address the housing crisis[17], transitioning to a low-carbon economy[14], and keeping our communities safer from wildfires[13]. But a lack of a cohesive national strategy is limiting the sector’s ability to contribute fully to our national economic and environmental goals.
Smaller, forest-rich countries like Finland and Sweden have already found ways to unlock the potential of their forests, leveraging this renewable resource to power their economy both at home and abroad[32]. With nearly seven times the amount of forested area and as globally-recognized leader in how we manage this renewable resource[30], just imagine what Canada can do if our leaders come together to create a National Forest Sector Strategy.
