Book Description
"This report presents survey results for Saskatchewan (SK) and Manitoba (MB)'s secondary wood manufacturing industries in 2017. The survey is part of the Canadian Forest Service (CFS) survey program on secondary wood manufacturing products across Canada; it compiles operational, employment, production, marketing, and financial information on nine business types. Most firms were in the south of the provinces where the population and demand for those products is concentrated. We estimated that SK's secondary wood manufacturing industries employed 2,201 people and had sales of $305 million. MB's secondary wood manufacturing industries were more than double the size of those in SK with 4,887 employees and $714 million sales. For both SK and MB, the majority of sales were within the provinces. Markets for MB products were more diverse with 35% exported to the rest of Canada and 13% to the United States. Of the responding firms, 41% in MB and 19% in SK hoped to expand operations, although firms reported several barriers to expansion plans. Market issues were identified as the most pressing challenges facing the industry in both provinces"--Abstract, page v.

Book Description
"This report presents survey results for Alberta's secondary wood manufacturing industries in 2017. The survey compiled operational, employment, production, marketing, and financial information on nine business types. This is the second focused survey of the sector after the first one was conducted in 2013 allowing for comparisons between the two years and providing base information for continued tracking of the sector in subsequent years. The secondary wood manufacturing sector has grown tremendously over the past 20 years but certainly has struggled to grow over the last decade. The Alberta secondary wood product industries, clustered around Calgary and Edmonton, were significant users of Alberta's wood resources and suppliers of wood-based products to Alberta and the rest of North America. Most of the fibre used by Alberta manufacturers was in the form of lumber sourced from the Alberta market. The majority of sales were within Alberta (65%), with the rest distributed across British Columbia (8%), the Prairies (3%), eastern Canada (12%), and the United States (12%). Over one third of responding firms planned to expand operations, although a number of challenges were identified as hindering expansion opportunities. Market uncertainty and trade barriers, along with high cost and an inexperienced labour force, were identified as the most pressing challenges facing the industry"--Abstract, page v.

"This report presents survey results for Alberta's secondary wood manufacturing industries in 2013. The survey compiled operational, employment, production, marketing, and financial information on nine business types. Additional information was acquired from Statistics Canada and Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada to provide supplemental trend data and information on panelboard industries. This is the first focused survey of the sector in many years and provides base information for continued tracking of the sector in subsequent years"--Abstract, p. vi.

Book Description
"This report presents the 2017 survey results for the secondary wood product manufacturing industries in New Brunswick (NB) and Nova Scotia (NS). The surveys were part of the Canadian Forest Service's first nationwide survey of secondary manufacturing. We collected operational, employment, production, marketing, and financial information on nine business types. Analysis of the survey results provides a comprehensive picture of the state of these industries and allows for comparison with similar surveys conducted by the Canadian Forest Service. Cabinet, furniture, and millwork manufacturers represent the largest subsector in our survey, accounting for 44% of NB and 61% of NS firms. We estimate that secondary manufacturers in NB employed 2,870 full-time equivalent workers, generating $491 million in sales. Nova Scotia's secondary manufacturers employed approximately 922 full-time equivalent workers, generating $152 million in sales"--Abstract, page v.

Book Description
"The British Columbia forest industry continuously faces challenges from commodity market volatility, increased global competition, and declining timber supply. Such challenges were front and centre during the housing and financial crisis in the United States and subsequent great recession of 2007-2009. This report presents survey results for the province's secondary wood manufacturing industries in 2016. The survey gathered operational, employment, production, marketing, and financial information on business types, with supplemental information gathered for panelboard producers. Analysis of the survey results provides a comprehensive picture of the state of the sector's industries and allows for comparison with past surveys conducted by the Canadian Forest Service, including the last one undertaken in 2012. The industry has grown since the last survey, but the relative economic contribution of the two largest subsectors, remanufacturing and engineered wood products, remained largely unchanged. The changes occurred among the smaller subsectors, with strong growth in shakes and shingles and other wood products offsetting the decline in millwork"--Abstract, page v.

Book Description
Ken Drushka analyses the changes in human attitudes towards the forests, detailing the rise of the late nineteenth-century conservation movement and its subsequent decline after World War I, the interplay between industry and government in the development of policy, the adoption of sustained yield policies after World War II, and the recent adoption of sustainable forest management in response to environmental concerns. Drushka argues that, despite the centuries of use, the Canadian forest retains a good deal of its vitality and integrity. Written in accessible language and aimed at a general readership, Canada's Forests will be a must-read for anyone interested in the debate about the current and future uses of this precious natural resource.
