Yet they mainly log our forests and mill our lumber for the benefit of US markets.

We engaged perspectives on community challenges, following the Canfor mill closure, but also new and exciting paths forward for local forestry.

I don't see ignoring politics as an option right now, but photography is my passion, and travel is an inseparable part of that. Photography as art, and as journalism. The Canfor mill at North Bend, BC, appears to have disappeared decades ago, but I shot some #Kodachromes there on August 27, 1989.
