<P> Forests and forestry in Canada are managed by Natural Resources Canada, which controls natural resources issues, and the Canadian Forest Service, which conducts research and coordinates forestry policy at the national level . These organizations are assisted by the National Advisory Board on Forest Research, established in 1997 and focusing on strategic issues, and the Forest Sector Advisory Council, which represents the interests of the multitude of private, non-profit and academic stakeholders in Canadian forestry . The Canadian Council of Forest Ministers, composed of 14 ministers representing the federal government and the various provinces and territories, is the main tool for dissemination of national and international policy throughout the country . </P> <P> European forestry in Canada is thought to date back to the 11th century, when Leif Ericson first landed off the coast of what is believed to be Newfoundland . Large scale forestry did not begin until European settlers landed several centuries later . The area that is now Canada experienced significant deforestation during the 18th and 19th centuries, as a booming population of settlers cleared the land; this pattern was also seen elsewhere in North America . Changes in management strategies in the 20th and 21st centuries have been able to halt the trend toward deforestation . </P> <P> Forestry is a major industry in Canada, contributing over $23 billion to the economy in 2010 . In the same year, over 190,000 people were directly employed by the forestry industry, contributing 1.3 percent of total employment and $8.8 billion in wages in 2009 . The majority of forestry employees are found in Quebec, British Columbia and Ontario . As of 2011, Canada contributed 10 percent of the world's sawnwood, 10 percent of the pulp for paper, 9 percent of the industrial roundwood, 4 percent of the wood - based panels and 3 percent of the paper and paperboard . In 2010, Canada enjoyed a significant surplus in their balance of trade, mainly due to being the second - largest exporter of forestry products globally . Much of this is exported, with Canada exporting 20 percent of the world's sawnwood, 18 percent of the pulp for paper, 8 percent of the paper and paperboard, 5 percent of the industrial roundwood and 5 percent of the wood - based panels . </P> <P> Canada's ecosystems depend on large forested areas, making much of massive resource unusable without ecological collapse . Canada is a participant in several international protocols and conferences in areas that affect its forested land . As a signatory to the Kyoto Protocol, reductions in greenhouse gas emissions are required, although there is some concern about the scientific reasoning behind some of the specific targets that Canada has chosen . Biotechnology and its effect on forested land is a concern, and the conservation of the forest's biological diversity is a major priority . The latter was the subject of the country's first Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity report . </P>
