Summary

Ottawa has conditionally committed up to $50 million toward an approximately $86-million digital forestry centre in New Brunswick, led by the Northern Hardwoods Research Institute with ResearchNB. The centre would use artificial intelligence and other digital tools to track wood supplies, model forests and coordinate truck dispatch; its funding is subject to project approval and due diligence.
