Boreal forest areas in Ontario’s Northeast to be protected
Forest company and conservation group signatories to the Canadian Boreal Forest Agreement (CBFA) welcome Ontario’s support recently of their approach and joint recommendations on an action plan for an area of the province’s boreal forest almost five times the size of Metro Toronto.
The action plan recommendations aim to secure the future of the 3 million hectares of caribou range in the Abitibi River Forest to conserve Boreal woodland caribou and maintain hundreds of jobs in forestry.
