No logging of forests where the average trees are over 800 years old. Selective logging of forests with trees between 80 and 800years.

Preservation of our forests outweighs the economic benefits but only selective logging, no clear cutting and a plan for regrowth and only if the profits stays in Canada

 @B6YVLRBfrom Alberta  answered…10mos10MO

no, we should not be logging, unless it’s wood previously taken from forest fires and we plant more trees

 @B5ZTTPYfrom Ontario  answered…12mos12MO

Yes and no, only selective logging, no clearcutting, and a plan for regrowth, but also leaving some forests completely alone for preservation

Selective logging, no clearcutting and plan for regrowth and also helping to ensure profits stay in canada.

How insane that this is even considered. What moron thinks the money from trees is more valuable than the oxygen from trees. Leave our trees alone.

Yes only if the indigenous peoples that have be caretakers of the land for millennia agree they should be longed to help with traditional burns to prevent bigger fires from occurring. It had less to do with logging potential and more with indigenous prevention of forest fires.

Yes, only if the profits stay in canada by being used by canadian companies or state run industry, with plans for regrowth and no clearcutting, trees are necessary, both for our economy but also for our climate.
