Registry of Lobbyists
Founded in 1913, the Canadian Pulp and Paper Association changed its name to the Forest Products Association of Canada (FPAC) in February 2001. FPAC is the voice of Canada's wood, pulp, and paper producers nationally and internationally in government, trade, and environmental affairs. Canada's forest industry represents almost 2 percent of Canada's GDP and exports over $23 billion annually. The industry is one of Canada's largest employers, operating in hundreds of Canadian communities and providing 600,000 direct and indirect jobs across the country. With the assistance of member companies, FPAC designs programs to promote Canada's leadership in trade and economic matters, sustainable forest management and environmental stewardship. L’Association canadienne des pâtes et papiers a été fondé en 1913. En février 2002 le nom fût changé à l’Association des produits forestiers du Canada. L’Association des produits forestiers du Canada (APFC) est le porte-parole, au Canada et à l’étranger, des producteurs canadiens de bois, de pâte et de papier pour les questions touchant le gouvernement, le commerce et l’environnement. L’industrie canadienne des produits forestiers représente 2 % du PIB et exporte plus de 23 milliards de dollars chaque année. Il s’agit de l’un des plus gros employeurs du pays, qui a des activités dans plus de 300 collectivités canadiennes et procure 725 000 emplois directs et indirects d’un océan à l’autre. Avec l’aide de ses membres, l’APFC conçoit des programmes visant à promouvoir l’action de chef de file du Canada dans le domaine commercial et économique, de l’aménagement forestier durable et de l’intendance de l’environnement.
