Message
sent to government over forests
PETERBOROUGH - The Canadi-
an public has sent a strong message
to the government and the forest in-
dustry in a recent Environics Re-
search poll says Canada's largest
sportsmen's organization, the Onta-
rio Federation of Anglers and Hunt-
ers.
The message is that forests have
value to Canadians far beyond pro-
ducing wood.
"The Environics Research poll
done for the Federal Department of
Forestry shows that Canadians be-
lieve the most important use of our
forests is wildlife protection. That's
exactly what the Ontario Federation
of Anglers and Hunters is fighting
for at !Iw Class Environmental As-
sessment into Timber Management
now underway in Thunder Bay,"
says Dr. Terry Quinney, a wildlife
biologist with thkFederation. "The
number of board feerper acre can no
longer be the overriding considera-
tion m forestry management. Clear-
ly, Canadians want to see our fo-
rests managed to protect and
enhance wildlife."
The poll, done earlier this year,
surveyed 2,529 Canadians and is ac-
curate to +1.9% in 19 out of 20
cases.
Other findings:
* More than 60% of Canadians
surveyed said potential environmen-
tal impacts should be the most im-
portant consideration in deciding
how specific forests areas are used.
- Only 12% felt the potential eco-
nomic value of the forest should be
most important.
* Most Canadians believe the for-
est industry causes either a great
deal (39%) or some (45%) damage
to the environmental quality of
Canada's forests.
* Close to one in two (46%) Ca-
nadians strongly disapprove of clear
cutting as the primary method of
logging in Canada, while another
25% somewhat disapproves. 't
* Most Canadians believe that
how fast and successfully the forest
can grow back ($9%) and the effects
on wildlife (85%) are very impor-
tant considerations in choosing the
best logging method. -
* A large majority of Canadians
either strongly (53%) or somewhat
(32%) favours the use of selection
cutting instead of clear cutting even
when told that selection cutting is
more 'expensive because of greater
labour and lower volumes..
The Ontario Federation of An-
glers and Hunters is the largest pro-
vincial conservation organization in
Ontario, with 73,000 members. In
addition, to its work to protect and
enhance fish and wildlife habitat, it
is known for its programs to edu-
cate young people, preserve wet-
lands, stop poaching, and enhance
recreational opportunities for
sportsmen.
The O.F.A.H. has been a partici-
pant at the Class Environmental
Assessment of Timber Management
on Crown land since it began in
May 1988.
