The Province of B.C. and McLeod Lake Indian Band have reached new agreements outlining how co-management and stewardship of the land and natural resources in the Nation’s territory will evolve.

The public is invited to get involved in the timber supply review for the Kootenay Lake Timber Supply Area (TSA) by submitting comments before July 4, 2023.

Mill tradespeople and technicians can access specialized entrepreneurship training and coaching to gain the foundational business skills they need to start and grow their own business.

B.C. communities can look forward to high-quality data to support effective and informed decision-making on the planning and management of wildfires, landslides, floods and other natural events.

The Ministry of Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation and the Ministry of Finance are releasing a “what we heard” report from discussions with First Nations on the co-development of a new fiscal framework, which includes a new forestry revenue-sharing model. 

To attract investment and showcase B.C. mass timber to a global audience, Jagrup Brar, Minister of State for Trade, will lead a trade mission to the United States and attend the International Mass Timber Conference.

Public feedback is requested to inform the next stage of the Lakes Resiliency Project to create a forest landscape plan, co-developed with First Nations and forest and range licensees.
