Great to see colleagues like Jordon Gabriel of Lil̓wat Forestry Ventures.
Our Executive Director Jennifer Gunter (middle) connects with Minister Parmar, Bob Marquis of Bob Marquis Contracting Ltd, Minister Dix, and the Vancouver Sun's provincial political columnist.
Full house for a TLA Panel session.
We had a valuable few days at The Truck Loggers Association's 81st annual Convention and Trade Show.
Thank you to TLA for once again convening the sector for a strong and timely event. Let’s keep the conversations, and the collaboration, going.
