We see ourselves as responsible stewards, who want Canada's forest to be healthy and managed sustainably so that its functions, biodiversity, resilience and productivity are maintained over the long term. The health of the forest is directly linked to environmental processes on local, regional and international scales as well as to the social, cultural, spiritual and economic wellbeing of us all.
