During a $22 billion announcement on federal affordability measures, Energy and Natural Resources Minister Tim Hodgson discussed Alberta’s forestry sector.
Hodgson said that it’s a sector “that is really challenged right now,” as they face “its fifth version of a trade war with the United States.”
He added that this funding includes $6.5 billion for Aberta forestry that will be used to “help transform the sector.”
“For Northern Alberta, that’s a really important initiative.”
