On Course
The National Forest Science & Technology Course of Action is a set of priorities for the generation, dissemination, and application of scientific & technical knowledge in seven action areas concentrating on the development of the Canadian Forest Service's capacity in technology transfer, training, communication, and forest management expertise. This publication reviews Canadian Forest Service research as it corresponds to the thematic areas expressed in the Course of Action, highlighting the extent to which the Service's program responds to Canadian forest policy initiatives and forest sector priorities. The thematic areas covered are: a team approach to forest science & technology management; developing methodologies for measuring indicators for sustainable forest management; public participation; forest ecosystems; the forest industry; forest stewardship; and relationships with Aboriginal peoples. For each area, the underlying issue is stated, followed by an overview of research and a selection of current experiments & studies.
Forest Sector Socioeconomic Impact Model for Northern Ontario Communities
Begins with a literature review on community economic development in general and on forestry-dependent communities. The literature is reviewed in the following terms: the financial market, traditional and non-traditional strategies for development, resource-dependent communities, and government roles and policies in economic development. The review is organised into topics including the role of entrepreneurship, urban community development in Canada, and local industrial development. The next sections examine selected measures of sustainable forestry and community development, and factors involved in northern Ontario community development. Finally, an input-output analytic model is presented for assessing impact on a community of expenditures on investment projects and other activities at the local and provincial level. The analysis is illustrated for a hypothetical case where the output of pulp and paper operations in Kapuskasing, Ontario is valued at 150 million. Economic impact results are supplemented by discussion of some general socio-economic indicators produced by the model.
