Forest Canada

Forest Canada refers to the country’s extensive and diverse forested areas, which cover about 45% of its landmass. These forests include boreal, temperate, and coastal rainforests, supporting a wide range of plant and animal species. They play a vital role in regulating climate, maintaining biodiversity, and providing resources such as timber, pulp, and non-timber products. Canadian forests also contribute significantly to the economy and indigenous communities. Sustainable management is essential to balance conservation efforts with economic use, ensuring these vital ecosystems remain healthy and productive for future generations.
