The author discusses the forestry-related aspects of the economy of Northern Ontario, stressing his belief that it is in a disastrous state and needs to be pushed in a dramatically different direction. The prevalence of an unsustainable commodity-based approach is described as leading to closures and layoffs, while a move to a value-added model focused on design and exports is recommended.
