A current forest inventory and re-dedication to replanting are critical components for the future of the industry, according to NDP forestry critic Norm Macdonald.
Macdonald was in Prince George Thursday, meeting with a variety of stakeholders as the party moves forward setting up its plan for forestry, based on five priorities. Macdonald said there has been no accurate inventory done of the province’s forests for 30 years, meaning about 70 per cent of current decisions surrounding forestry is based on old information.
