One big family, celebrating the life of one of our heroes: Premier John Horgan.
John was a leader and an advocate, but more so, he was a friend to all. A one of a kind man.
What an honour it was to lead our celebration of John from Langford.

The world needs wood product, and B.C. is the one who will supply it.
In Japan, we saw our wood being put to use. All the way across the world.
We won’t let protectionism corner us. We’re the global forestry leaders, so we’re seeking new opportunities.

Like Japan, South Korea has been a trusted trading partner of BC forestry.
It's time to strengthen that relationship, finding new opportunities and partnerships, to grow our sector at home.

I’ve been asked to define our trade mission to Asia. Well this is it:
Building new partnerships, finding new markets, all to support our sector back home.
Even under Trump’s tariffs and duties, we’re going to create jobs and generate investment.

Now, it’s crucial to B.C. and Canada, that we support workers and diversify this forestry.
