About the event
Trees are one of Canada’s most important natural resources. Wood provides many vital products for everyday life. Though some natural resources are not replaceable, forests can be a renewable resource if they are carefully managed. Trees cover nearly half of Canada. The variety is great, ranging from Douglas fir, Sitka spruce and Garry oak in Pacific regions to white ash, black ash and sugar maples in central and eastern Canada. Other species (such as black spruce, white spruce and white birch) are found right across the country. One hundred and seventy different kinds of trees grow in Canada. Twenty-three softwoods or conifer species (cone-bearing), and 32 hardwood or deciduous (broad-leaved) species are commercially useful.
