Abstract

This chapter examines how Canada is trying to transform the current structure of its forest sector. The Canadian transition is somewhat similar to that of Sweden. Thus, the measures taken by Canada, though differing in many particulars from the Swedish efforts, are also considered as potential “lessons learned” from a Swedish perspective. The forest sectors of the northern hemisphere are undergoing dramatic structural changes as a result of stagnation or decline in the traditional developed economy markets and rapid market growth in the emerging economies. The conditions for the economically sustainable production of industrial forest products are changing rapidly worldwide.
