John Brink is angry about the B.C. government’s decision to allocate 10 per cent of B.C.'s annual allowable cut to the value-added forest sector.
"If it is 600,000 cubic metres annually that is nothing, that is not even the size of a regular sawmill," Brink said. “That means the government has said, ‘We don’t want value-added manufacturing.’ If you do not have reasonable expectation of access to fibre, why would anybody invest in value-added manufacturing?”
He predicts the restricted timber supply available will cripple value-added businesses and deter investment in B.C. In the mid-1990s, when Brink was founding president of the BC Council of Value-Added Wood Processors, there were eight associations and 800 member companies, two-thirds of which are no longer operating.
