April 28 is the National Day of Mourning in Canada and Workers Memorial Day in the United States. This day is observed to honour workers that have lost their lives, have been injured or disabled, or have suffered or died from occupational disease as a result of their work. All workplace injuries are preventable and we each have a part to play in creating and sustaining safe workplaces.

Serving breakfast with a smile! Every Tuesday morning, Reid Palmer and Jamie Cole show up bright and early at Prince Charles School in Saint John, N.B. to help out with the school breakfast program. The two are volunteers through PALS (Partners Assisting Local Schools). "I was excited for an opportunity to become part of a supportive network, which helps to build children up," says Jamie. This Volunteer Week we will be featuring some of our many team members who contribute to their local communities in their spare time. Thanks for all you do! Read more here: https://bit.ly/4jz5UF6

We are proud to recognize Earth Day! Part of sustainable forest management means continuously seeking methods to minimize our carbon footprint through renewable energy sources. We strive to use green energy wherever we can, which is why we turn to biomass as fuel. In processing, many of our mills burn bark as fuel, and over half of the direct energy used in our Forest Supply Chain is derived from biomass fuels.
